MOTORCYCLE SAFETY

MOTORCYCLE SAFETY
Always Wear a Helmet

Motorcycle safety is in the news today with the injury to Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger getting seriously injured in an accident. If you need information on motorcycle safety the Motorcycle Safety Foundation is a great source.

Remember, always wear a helmet. The road is populated with idiots talking on their cell phones who will do stupid stuff.

Keep your motorcycle well maintained.

Wear leather – in case you have to put it on the ground. Gravel and motorcycle riders sliding across the ground are a nasty combination. Wear the proper biker clothing.

Take a motorcycle training course. Watch out for the jackasses who you, by law, have to share the road with. WEAR A HELMET!!!

Remember, always ride defensively. Expect the idiots to do stupid stuff. Apparently the old woman who caused all of injuries “Big Ben” didn’t see him and made a left turn right in front of him. He was riding safely, at a reasonable speed when the accident occurred. He didn’t do anything wrong. Still, that makes a lousy eulogy.

If you are entirely too cool to wear a helmet, be sure you have an organ donor card in your wallet.
