- This video gives an overview of the system IPSGA as taught by Roadcraft, the Police Riders Handbook. This has been the mainstay of emergency services and advanced driving and riding for many years.
I'll need to watch this a few more times. Your material is very high in detail, this is a system that's invaluable to any motorcyclist, if you think that it isn't then you need to quit biking. 10/10
Thank you for all your training videos. As a relatively new rider I have found them to be invaluable. When I'm unsure of something I come back to your channel and can find a video about any particular issue. Fantastic. Thank you so much.
Another top video to which I watched and rewound time after time just to read you post-it notes, very useful thnk you
As a IAM trained rider I found this review very interesting. The system (IPSGA) saved my life not long after I completed my training. On a NSL road in Scotland a car pulled out directly in front of me. I had used the system to adjust my position on the road and be in the right speed and gear to successfully avoid hitting the car. It was all very calm and at the time I felt quite comfortable taking the action that saved me. It was only later that I considered that had my concentration lapsed or I’d not heeded the information that I received as I approached the junction with the car in it, then things might have been very different. You touched on concentration and it’s usually a lack of it when collisions occur. Practice something consistently and it becomes second nature but that can allow bad habits to develop too, so actively rehearsing the system in your head is essential?
@spudgunson thanks for your comments here, interesting to read. I'm glad you had a non incident by virtue of applying your training.
Practice makes perfect as they say. I think with bike training practice can create responses to incidents rather than reactions, which is what we really want. If we practice something badly then bad habits will indeed set in, but I think if we have an awareness of what we are doing and why it should help to keep the brain flexible. All the best.
Another great video and explanation of the system and why it works and it makes a 'thinking rider' safer. Many thanks
Thank you Phil. I only messaged about this a week ago and you put out a video, brilliant. Very helpful for understanding the application of the system 👍
You are welcome, hope it is of some use. I wish you well with the advanced. All the best
IPSGA and Roadcraft and advanced riding are not really taught here (Canada). Shortly after buying a bike after 30ish years without riding. I bought the Roadcraft book. It was really helpful to my own personal safety on my bike. I just have to translate from left to right.
Its probably past time I read it again.
Great video.
It’s nice to see information videos like this doesn’t matter how long you’ve been riding you’re always learning.
I think what helps me is I used to drive heavy trucks delivering digger’s so I’m always planning and when I’m riding I give myself a running commentary in my head. Thanks for sharing your experience. 👍👍ride safe.
thank you, all the best
Great video of a real life saving technique. Having been taught the system many years ago I find it reassuring, if that's the right word, that I'm riding as safely as possible. I still talk to myself occasionally repeating the sequence in my head just as a kind of refresher. 👍
Excellent tuition and observations. I like to think this comes naturally with good, comprehensive training 😉
Phil, Again, content, detail and presentation first class. Thank You for taking the time to produce these tutorial videos. I have Motorcycle Roadcraft and IAM Advanced Rider Course Log books which I read and apply practise to but your presentations add that 'actually on the road and applying' diamension 👍👍👍
What an informative Moto channel this is. Thanks!!👍
Great video Phil, thank you. I hope you're keeping well.
thank you, yes im good thanks, hope you are too. all the best
@@MotorcyclePWR it's been an interesting time since I saw you last between more redundancies and a heart attack. I haven't been on the bike for 4 years but everything is good now. Roll on warmer weather and I'll be back on the road.
@IJM02 goodness, sorry to hear that you have had to cope with all that but glad everything is now good. Im not sure exactly who you are from the youtube handle but i wish you well and if you need any assistance returning to biking please get in touch. happy to help, all the best
@@MotorcyclePWR thanks Phil. You had my panniers and radio box from my RTP when I converted it to rain seat.
@@MotorcyclePWR thanks Phil. You had my panniers and radio box from my RTP when I converted it to twin seat.
Really look forward to your videos. Currently A2 wishing to do A license soon. Looking at doing blood biking in the future
thank you, i wish you well with your next steps, all the best
Another excellent tutorial 👍
Thank you and ride safe sir
Excellent. Very helpful vedio
Love these videos 📹 very well presented. Excellent description.
Music at the beginning sounds a bit 80s , needs something more inviting 🎶
thank you, much appreciated. Ah the 80s, says it all for me I think ! Always happy for suggestions, one has to draw from youtubes selection to avoid copyright issues. All the best
15:00 in and you have cleared up the "speed and gear' phases, i.e. you can change gear in the speed reduction and breaking phase 👍👍👍
Yes, interesting; the way I learned was that you seek to keep both phases separate, Speed first, then Gear, with one small exception; some overlap was allowed in the final phase of the Speed phase. For example, on the approach to a roundabout, your final seconds of Speed Phase might marginally overlap with Gear Phase. I missed out on a First for that very reason, not enough separation of those phases dealing with a couple of hazards. I don't have Roadcraft to hand, but I even think it states that in Roadcraft, I might be wrong though, so need to check.
Respectful of where this is pitched
Nice clear explanation.
👍🏍
Thanks AW8 👍
Do you have vids about all about emergency stopping? wether its safer to concentrate all the attention and power on the front brake?
hi, thanks for your comment.. I havent produced any vids on it yet. But yes, the front brake is your main stopper and effective controlled use of the front brake will get you stopped more promptly if used correctly. Its important to never grab the brake, but gently apply initially to allow the weight transfer forward and to then apply more pressure so the tyre can maintain grip. If you can, ease the front brake pressure just before stopping to allow balance. The rear brake doesn't do a lot in emergency braking, as the back wheel is light, so tyre grip is minimal, but it can help stabilise the rear, and is useful at the end of the stop. I hope this helps, all the best
Do they have the roadcraft manual on digital format? The last version I could find of the paperback version was 2020. Is there a more up to date one?
hi, as far as i know 2020 was the latest edition. You can sign up for updates via their site or purchase a licence for online access www.roadcraft.co.uk/motorcycle-roadcraft/motorcycle-roadcraft-online/ all the best
@@MotorcyclePWR Thanks.
