Fuel Consideration
All AAM Observers are volunteers and the motorcycle Observers use their own protective gear, motorcycle and fuel when coaching and helping Associate motorcyclists become Advanced Riders. Consequently, our Observers would appreciate a contribution to the Observer's fuel costs, especially when the Observer is also giving up 1 - 2 hours of their time for each session. We hope motorcycle Associates agree to either provide £5 to cover the petrol or to treat the Observer to a coffee / cake as a goodwill gesture after each Observing session.
Member Stories
Tony Webb's half century of Advanced Driving
A Londoner by birth, Tony moved to Bristol in his early twenties where he took and passed the Institute of Advanced Motorists Advanced Driving Test in 1970; Tony has been a full paid-up member ever since making 2019 his 50th year with the charity. Tony said that his two-wheel road experiences started in 1965 with a Vespa GS125 and later a Suzuki 125 beach bike - with top speeds of around 50mph -"quite sedate by modern standards" jokes Tony, now. However, it is the cars in Tony's life that would make a significant classic car line up, worthy of any collections - initially learning to drive in one of the very first Morris 1100s then following on with an Austin A40 Farina, Mini Cooper, then a plethora of Triumphs (Spitfire MK4, GT6, TR6, Dolomite Sprint and 2.5PI) and even one of the first 2 door Land Rovers before graduating to more exotica such as a Ford Lotus Cortina Mk2, Gilbern GT, Porsche 928, Caterham Super7, Mercedes SLs and a 1930s Bentley plus many more. Tony's driving experience with all these British classics (Porsche & Mercs aside) has made him a committed classic car enthusiast.
