Biking & Biker Humour
 < Back
 

To kick off, a classic! A serious message conveyed with humour :-)
A biker goes for a ride on his motorcycle in the lovely devon countryside but is somewhat annoyed by the lack of respect from other road users. SMIDSY........a Bikers revenge. SMIDSY, an acronym used all too often by motorcyclists for the now infamous words uttered by so many car drivers (other vehicle drivers) - "Sorry mate I didn't see you" Here's a great movie done by one of the guys from a local IAM (Institute of Advanced Motorists) group for Devon County Council's motorcycle safety campaign.
This should appear on TV to get the message across to other road users that 'look' but dont see!!!!!!!!!!!!! [AndyW]
 

 

 
Having recently added the Videos page to the CVAM website I (AndyW) got to thinking that maybe there would be a demand for off road motorcycle traing/safety videos. So last weekend me and a mate had a go at making one ourselves..........I'm not sure we have the safety aspects right yet and maybe our riding techniques need some polishing? What d'ya think?....  Motorcycle Off Road Training Video
