Very many congratulations to Michael Newsam who passed his IAM RoadSmart Advanced Rider test with a F1RST, Saturday 11 July 2020.

A F1RST Pass is one where the rider scores a 1 in every category (a maximum of two categories are permitted a score of 2 each but exclude Legality and Slow Manoeuvring which must score a 1).

An excellent result as achieving a F1RST Pass requires much hard work and considerable effort.
A very well done also to Michael’s Observer Gareth Jones, for guiding his associate to a very high Test Standard and thanks to Brian Purnell who conducted the Pre-Test Ride Check.
