Safety Corner
QUICK TIPS: General Guidelines For Riding A Motorcycle Safely

Be visible:
- Remember that motorists often have trouble seeing motorcycles and reacting in time.
- Make sure your headlight works and is on day and night.
-Use reflective strips or decals on your clothing and on your motorcycle.
- Be aware of the blind spots cars and trucks have.
- Flash your brake light when you are slowing down and before stopping.
- If a motorist doesn't see you, don't be afraid to use your horn.


Dress for safety:
- Wear a quality helmet and eye protection.
- Wear bright clothing and a light-colored helmet.
- Wear leather or other thick, protective clothing.
- Choose long sleeves and pants, over-the-ankle boots, and gloves.
- Remember --the only thing between you and the road is your protective gear.


Apply effective mental strategies:
- Constantly search the road for changing conditions. Use MSF's Search, Evaluate, Execute strategy (SEESM) to increase time and space safety margins.
- Give yourself space and time to respond to other motorists' actions.
- Give other motorists time and space to respond to you.
- Use lane positioning to be seen; ride in the part of a lane where you are most visible.
- Watch for turning vehicles.
- Signal your next move in advance.
- Avoid weaving between lanes.
- Pretend you’re invisible, and ride extra defensively.
- Don't ride when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.
- Know and follow the rules of the road, and stick to the speed limit.


Know your bike and how to use it:
- Get formal training and take refresher courses.
- Practice. Develop your riding techniques before going into heavy traffic. Know how to handle your bike in conditions such as wet or sandy roads, high winds, and uneven surfaces
.

Remember: Give yourself space. People driving cars often just do not see motorcycles. Even when drivers do see you, chances are they've never been on a motorcycle and can not properly judge your speed.

Anyone wanting to hold a Group Riding Class --contact Anne at 816-420-9000.

Snake Saturday
It is that time of year to get out your green and celebrate with those crazy Irishmen of Kansas City! This years Snake Saturday Parade will be on Saturday, March 13, 2010 and Worth H-D North will be highly represented by Riders Edge and the KCN HOG Chapter.


We will meet at 8:30 am in the Burger King Parking lot, across from Denneys, in North Kansas City, and leave 9:00am. We will head over to staging as a group and get ready for the parade. Please feel free to decorate your bikes and/or come dressed in your finest green attire.

It will be a day of fun and I look forward to roaring through North Kansas City with all of you. Any questions, please call Anne at 816-213-1253.
