  • Carry plenty of sunscreen.
  • Carry plenty of fluids. Keep them out of the sunlight. If leaving from home, fill a water bottle the night before and put it in the freezer. Then you’ll have cool water for hours.
  • Make sure you have good sunglasses to provide ultraviolet light protection for your eyes.
  • Don’t drink alcohol, and avoid coffee or sodas containing caffeine-these can increase the rate of water loss.
  • Don’t take salt tablets. They draw water into the stomach instead of distributing it to the rest of the body.
  • Check with your doctor to see if any medication you are taking increases water loss, and ask whether you can do without it for a few days.
  • Most importantly, take frequent rest stops. Remember, this is a motorcycle ride, not a forced march.

No Longer Flying Solo

Many people who have logged thousands of miles as passengers move to the front at some point in their lives. Surely their countless miles on the back have prepared them for becoming the driver?

Guess again!

Riding our bikes on city street teaches many things. The all time life-saver is:
If you can, never enter an intersection without another vehicle on your right!

If you have to slow down to let a vehicle catch up with you, or increase speed so that you catch up with another vehicle. Having a vehicle on your right side is as safe as it gets for entering an intersection.

PASS OR NOT PASS

YOU’RE ON YOUR way to a big motorcycle rally, traveling through a forest in the mountains. You’re anxious to get to the fairgrounds, set up your tent, socialize with the other riders and look at the different machines. But for the last 20 miles you’ve been stuck behind a slow-moving motorhome. The double yellow “no passing” lines seem to go on forever, and wherever you could legally pass, there had been oncoming traffic. To add frustration, the motorhome driver speeds up in the straights, and slows down in the curves.
