(pic) (Vicki's Secret Lying Fallow) The Motorcycle Safety Foundation does a good job of making bikes safer by education. Even if you've ridden for years there's good stuff there. The big things are traffic strategy, counter-steering, and good front brake use. At least, that's my perception. My own hypocritical self, I haven't taken the course even though I insisted both my boys take it before venturing forth on roads. From their reports, the MSF courses reinforced what their old man had been drumming into them.
