We hope you never hear these words:

“Sorry mate, didn’t see you!”

It wasn’t your fault – so that’s ok then - some twit pulled out in front of you!  But wouldn’t you prefer not to be laid up with multiple injuries and a smashed bike?

Ok.  This may not have happened to you yet (or maybe it has!); but whatever the perceived cause of motorcycle accidents may be, or who’s to blame, we know that crashes happen because of three main problem areas.

1. Braking Skills.
   • How would you ride if your bike had no brakes?
   • What if there were a major fault limiting your brakes to only 30% efficiency?
   • What if the major fault were you?  What if you only know how to use 30% of what you’ve got?
   
   
2. Swerving (avoidance) Skills.
   • How would you ride if your handlebars couldn't turn?
   • How would you swerve if your bike couldn’t lean?
   • What if you haven't explored what this means; what if positive use of the handlebars is a mystery?
   
   
3. Cornering Skills.
   • When you approach a bend do you think “oh goody!” or “oh sh*t!”?
   • How aware are you of the use of counter-steering in your riding?
   • We are all human; we make mistakes.  The perfect ride is still waiting to be ridden.

How will you cope when you get it wrong?
