Gonna have to watch this later as it's half an hour, but at 28s, should your mate be so close to the oncoming?!

His positioning is fine. The commentary is more about what I'm doing Rather than him. Although I do say it's about his riding at the start of the video. It was an ad hoc commentary commentry as I got a bit bored

Will have a proper look when I have the time, but all tje advanced trainers I have ever spoken to encourage moving away from oncoming, and not staying on the line.

Looks nice countryside though, where was this?

Sussex/Hampshire border

Probably better to ignore the bike in front as I'm not really talking about him

As you give commentary on your college he gets seriously close to oncoming. Close/rushed overtakes on one or two of them, especially the van and the solid white line :-(, crossing hatchings is a no no too, safety first etc ...it's also like listening to a auctioneer ! But nice to see someone trying. Have you thought about not describing hazards in such long detail as you talk so fast you cant keep up! If you watch the excellent advancedbiker channel. He is excellent at talking at a normal speed and picking out hazards that are important. He also does model overtakes. Out of interest which advanced test did you take? and was it a while ago?

Crossing hatchlings is fine as long as they are surrounded by broken white lines. As I said, commentaris mainly about my riding not the other bikes. yes I know advanced biker., we've spoken in the past . I wasn't pointing out all the hazards btw. In answer to you training question, Class one Police advanced for 12 years , still current.
