Default Re: Is biking safe?

No,its not safe. But very few things are.

You must remain alert and ready at all times; never once let your gaurd down. If you are not 100% certain of something,then dont do it. You can reduce the risk on your behalf, but you can never reduce the risk coming from other people. Have a loud exhaust, wear a hi-vis vest with the silver stripes that reflect really well, keep your motorcycle well maintained, and ride in a responsible manner. Don't be afraid to use your horn, its better to be "rude" than to plant your bike (and yourself) into the side of a car because they didnt know you were there.

Wear the right gear, keep your visor clean.

Everything else is up to the gods!
