May Is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month

Or so I've just learned.

http://www.nhtsa.gov/Safety/Motorcycles

Ride safe everyone.

Indeed it is and since I work on a government installation sometimes I get to attend some classes designed to make those of us who ride - more aware of the risks.

I wish the cage drivers had a similar class - to make them more aware of the risk they present to those of us on two wheels.

And in all fairness - the Army is really trying so I can't fault them. They stress safety all the time. Good website for safety info: https://safety.army.mil/povmotorcyclesafety/

When I click on the link in your post Dale, I get the following warning message from firefox (I don't know if I should ignore it or not)

Technical Details

The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown.

I get this same message. I chose not to go there.It may be safe but

My fault, I forgot about the certificates (actually had not noticed the "https"), the site is safe if you choose to "trust" it.

They won't present a certificate to any computer that has not been configured or registered throught the "Army Knowledge Network" (AKO). If you are a retiree, you can access this page through the AKO. If not - the certificate error will be presented.
