FIM Europe cares more and more about Touring Motorcycling and for this reason has developed new programs including the Motorcyclists Friendly Hotels network and has just launched the first Tour-Assistant Training Course.
The Course has the aim to have coordinated and standardized Tour-Assistant services all over Europe that were currently lacking.
The first Course will be held on September 3rd at Honda Safety Center in Barcelona, Spain.
Tour-Assistants have been be pre-selected by their respective National Member Federations according to the pre-qualification assessment check-list. The first group of 10 Tour-Assistant candidates will be provided with a one-day theoretical and practical riding training on Tour-Assistants’ skills at Honda Safety Center.
The instructors will be the chairman of the Touring Commission Nils Freivalds and two very experienced members of the Commission – Panagiotis Kalaitzis and Laurynas Baltrunas.
At the end of the course, a certificate of attendance will be delivered to the participants who will complete successfully the training and their names will be published both on the FIM Europe website and on the FIM Europe Yearbook.
This information will be available to all National Federations, which therefore will have at their disposal a list of qualified persons to refer to in case they need the Tour-Assistant professional figure.
