"When You're Dead, Your Bank Account Goes to Zero"

Livin' Better Side of The Great Divide


« on: May 21, 2015, 02:42:06 PM »

Been reading about a few crashes lately in the board and came across a few articles from Motorcyclist Magazine under the title "Street Savvy".

As the riding season is getting underway and many are hitting the road for long distance tours in unfamiliar environments, these articles may give one pause to think over some strategies to deal with the unknowns around the next curve in the road.
The bottom of the first article brings up a few more articles of varied riding subjects.

Enjoy the ride and may it be safe for all. cooldude

Good read, but the article just scratched the surface of alert riding practices.  I review several books every year, just as the riding season is about to start, the best being "Proficient Motorcycling" by David Hough.

Ride safe out there, and I will see you in Spearfish...
