🪖

Always Wear Full Gear

Helmet, jacket, gloves and boots — every ride, every time.

👁️

Be Seen, Be Safe

Use your headlight, wear bright colours and stay out of blind spots.

🔧

Regular Maintenance

Check tyre pressure, brakes and chain before every ride.

🌧️

Ride for the Weather

Reduce speed in rain and watch for slippery road markings.

🛞

Check Your Tyres

Look for worn tread, nails, cracks and correct pressure before long rides.

↔️

Keep Safe Distance

Leave extra space from cars and lorries so you have time to react.

🧠

Read the Road Ahead

Scan junctions, U-turn gaps, parked cars and side roads early.

🪞

Use Mirrors Often

Check behind before changing lane, braking hard or moving around traffic.

📵

No Phone While Riding

Set navigation before moving and stop safely if you need to check messages.

⛽

Plan Fuel Stops

Agree on petrol stops early and refuel before remote roads.

🤝

Ride Your Own Pace

Do not chase faster riders. Regroup at stops and corners instead.

Carry Emergency Info

Keep ICE contact, blood type, insurance details and basic tools accessible.
