What's It All About?

If you are considering an advanced riding course then come to the real experts.  With observers from East Kent Advanced Motorcyclists you will have your riding skills honed on a one-to-one basis on the best value-for-money courses available, and take an advanced test at the end.

Advanced riding, assisted by East Kent Advanced Motorcyclists, a non-profit making organisation, offers cost-effective guidance leading to the IAM RoadSmart Advanced Motorcycle Test under the IAMRoadSmart's Advanced Rider Course package.  If you are considering signing up then it might be worth your while to contact our This email address is being protected from spambots.

Club runs, barbeques, auctions, dealer demo evenings, to name but a few activities that EKAM members get up to on the social front.  Take a look at the Club Events page to see what else our members are getting up to.

The club meets on the third Wednesday of each month at Sandyacres Sports & Social Club, Sandyhurst Lane, Ashford, TN25 4PE.

Is Your Riding Up To Scratch

East Kent Advanced Motorcyclists provides you with two options to find out if your riding skills are as good as they could be.

The first option is to let one of our experienced IAM RoadSmart Observers take you out for a FREE assessment of your capabilities and potential and provide you with a written report.

Are You Under 30?

Statistically, riders under the age of 30 are far more likely to have a life-changing accident.  If you are under 30 then not only can EKAM improve your riding skills but we are prepared to subsidise the full cost of IAM RoadSmart Advanced Rider Course fee.  Terms and conditions apply but please read this Younger Riders Under 30 article.
