I just started riding two months ago. Got a 2004 Honda CBR600 F4i for my first bike. I'd like to take a motorcycle training course, but the city I live in with a population of 50,000 doesn't have one at all... kinda pisses me off. I always figured I'd end up dying in a car crash, but now I'm not so sure. Made it 800 miles so far and I'm still alive though.

This just goes to show you should never stop learning, you should improve your riding skills, improve your observation and awareness, and in turn you'll increase your confidence and most importantly safety, all simply achieved with Advanced Training, great vid learn2ride.

when I read your comment I have the feeling I'm ready an obituary for a funeral which hasn't happened yet.

It didn't scare me, just made me sad.

My last PPS, I promise - ;-) Would you believe, in that 6 months on the most dangerous roads in Europe, I never once performed a single lifesaver,Why? Because I didn't even know what one was, or why it should be done. I just don't understand how so many boys who love bikes and speed because they love life, are ready to let it end in such a quick and pointless way.

Ps-
How many times do we hear people say: " the problem isn't us, the bikers, it's other motorists who are stupid and careless? " . But then you have to ask, how many were caused by basic rider fault or misjudgement? I 'd guess more than 90% could have been avoided, maybe more. I rode 6 months unlicensed and untrained and unplated in Moscow, and I look back and know im lucky to be alive. Never again.

Makes me so sad to see this, thanks for making it a respectful and thoughtful video and not sensationalist. Such a waste of life for these boys, there's no need for it if you just get training and use what you learn. I wonder, if all the dead boys could speak now, what they would say or wish they'd done or advise others to do? Tragic that it's just the wrecks of their beloved bikes that are left to speak foe them. WISE UP.

Not sure the scare tactic is something i'd subscribe to. Just like a Domestos advert... FACT!

@anagennao Another thing try not to ride with anyone that will geet you killed. Always look out for cagers because they really don't look out for the bikers.

Bike riders be warned take RH bends not LH bends.

ok, theres a mentality issue, if your gonna cane it in the bends, then prepare to die, many of these cyclists will watch motogp then go out on public roads and replicate the same, they die, motogp drivers don't, WHY: because public road riders don't have a FULL armor romper suit, and they don't have gravel traps, they do have oncomeing obsticals and do have cliff edges

@paganizondaR73MBZZZ good points, thank you. Racers (like those at this week's NW 200 here in Northern Ireland for example) are not only professionals with years of experience, but also well-maintained machines & are travelling at (usually) the same speeds- even whilst overtaking.
Nevermind the fact that roads are checked & junctions are closed, pedestrians are not allowed on track, ambulance crews are on hand & there are no other drivers about (eating while driving, texting, arguing, tired..)
