On the road with Science Of Being Seen (SOBS)

*** SCIENCE OF BEING SEEN *** On the road again!
Very pleased to have delivered the Science Of Being Seen #SOBS talk to the Cornwall IAM group and Cornwall MAG at a joint meeting on Tuesday night.
And it was a great turn out too - I didn't do a precise headcount but the hall holds 100 and I estimate at least eighty-plus seats were filled. It was great to see a couple of my former trainees in the audience too.
Since it's a rather long way to Cornwall from NW London, we took it a bit easy with an overnight stop in N Devon, which did allow a cross-country route and a bit of exploring on what turned into a lovely day after the early showers had passed over.
The only thing was, some of the back lanes we took have almost reverted to nature. On one road, I actually stopped to check the map to make sure we really WERE on a road. The surface was so broken up it was more like a typical farm access track than a public highway.
If you fancy some real adventure bike riding, just head to NW Devon. You won't be disappointed at the experience. But don't bother with the Gixxer!
Some fantastic scenery along the way, and a chance to chat to new people after the talk.
I'm back in Devon in three weeks for another talk - this one will be 'Crash Course (in how not to)' and I'm looking forward to that very much indeed.
I'm always happy to run a talk for a club or a group... SOBS, Crash Course or something else!
