Army Motorcycle Safety Video
Apologies if posted before.
Quite hard-hitting this one I think! http://news.motorbiker.org/blogs.nsf...cle-safety.htm

Re: Army Motorcycle Safety Video
That makes a point. Without sounding sarcastic but very hard hitting.

Don't get me wrong, I think it is a well conceived ad/idea, but I can't believe that signing up will suddenly double my chances of dying!

That said, my brother is ex forces and I'd say he's less likely than average to crash than your average joe, but that's probably down to his restraint/personality rather than his job. |

Re: Army Motorcycle Safety Video
Quite a few of the camps round Salisbury area are "quarantining" returning troops from over sea's tours in a bid to stop them rushing straight out and getting on there bikes.
I did a bikesafe course at the weekend and one of the highest risks were returning forces personnel, for what reason they're not sure but they have psychologist's working on it, 3 were killed in 1 week on the same stretch of road earlier this year, all having only been back in the country for 1 week. |
