Just a reminder..they dont hurt. Always be extra defensive when driving your scoot. There were 5 motorcyclists killed in Quebec, Canada this past weekend. By the sounds of it, all but one may have been preventable.

Defensive is the action word when we ride our wings. We have to be able to know what the other guy/girl is thinking, before they do it. The other mesg tomotorcyclists is,Dont play dice with the white line in the centre of the road, as sure as day turns to night, the guy/girl coming the opposite direction is doing the same thing, but he/she might be driving a huge truck. Keep away from the white lineandNEVER exceed your capabilities.

Even defensive isn't always 100%effective against other drivers/riders, but it's about as much as we can do to help ourselves stay up off the tarmac.

Unfortunately you don't always get a second chance when things go wrong on a motorcycle. At best you will limp away and learn from any mistakes you might have made. "It's okay to make a mistake, so long as you don't pay too dearly for it."
