Condor Posted April 9, 2009 #1 Posted April 9, 2009 This video was made by the Ca CHP in 2007, but is still something we all should look at now that the riding season is just around the corner. Not for the squeemish. http://www.chp.ca.gov/html/motorcycle_v.html
yamahacruiserman Posted April 9, 2009 #2 Posted April 9, 2009 Just checked out the video, all VentureRider's need to see this. Reminds us to not take anything for granted and always remember the fundamentals of rider safety no matter how long you've been riding! thanks for the info!

loehring Posted April 9, 2009 #4 Posted April 9, 2009 Kind of brings it into perspective doesn't it? What we do is dangerous and we need to pay attention ALL THE TIME!!!

Smalltowntx Posted April 10, 2009 #10 Posted April 10, 2009 Does it seem odd to any of you that it us Riders that watch these videos, and take note of what the video is saying. You seldom see or hear of drivers of automobiles taking the time to watch a video like this. Just goes to show that we as Riders are the one's that have to watch out for our selves by watching out for everyone else on the road. Nearly twenty years ago, when I first started riding I had a very good friend that helped me get my license by riding my bike to the Driver's License Office for me and driving the Officer around so that I could get my license. After I had passed the test, before he would let me get on my bike as a legally licensed rider he told me he had one piece of advice to give. "Ride this bike like you are invisible, because to everyone out there you are!" That simple advice has helped to keep me safe by constantly watching the other guy, and always looking for the alternative path should I need to take it. Thanks for sharing the video.
