Safe Riding Tips Video

Some of you may have seen this video before but I think it's worth posting for those who haven't.
Warning: It contains some pretty violent crashes.

It is very worth watching. Although most of the wheelie stuff is not pertinent to our Nomads, I have been on the road and witnessed alot of the antics by people I didn't know, and got out of their way. I have investigated to many to think of as well and unlike a car, when crashing a bike, you will sustain an injury. Thanks for sharing.

good video...shows some stupidity on drivers and riders parts...

So, How many riders of the age group that this video mostly shows will view it and decide they may be mortal and change the way they ride. OR, how many will say; " I'm too good, that will never happen to me". You can lead a horse to water...............................

A reminder that we are vulnerable when mistakes are made. We can only hope that some ride less recklessly after seeing the video.

Thanks for reposting this. It is a great reminder of how fast and what of sh*t can happen...Why I don't ride in shorts, without gloves, with less than a full face helmet...

Thanks for the post. This is a compilation of videos I had seen before, but putting them together with the "message" hopefully will be effective. I've seen many "lucky" riders who pulled off their stunts. It's bad for motorcycling, when these idiots pull stunts, don't learn to ride and ignore safety on the street.
