1 Gold Wing Road Riders Association Chapter AB-A A (Calgary) Newsletter CASTLE MOUNTAIN February, 2009 Wing Wag Text from the Education Division at GWRRA forwarded by Alex Middleton, Chapter Educator AB-A M y 10 best reasons the part of the road closest to the centerline is the best choice for 90% of riding situations. Here s my own personal opinions on riding safer. It's all about being seen. People aren't generally watching for vehicles traveling along the shoulder. I also encourage the fact that the more accessory lighting you have on your Honda Gold Wing, the safer you and your co-rider will be on the open road. Besides turning heads everywhere you go, lighting plays a vital role in being seen, adding extra visibility could save your life. Check out items that can make your bike safer along with the chrome bling. Examples of items that play a role in your safety are things like a (Continued on page 3) Feb 9 Mar 9 Mar 28 Coming Events Monthly Meeting Monthly Meeting First Aid Course What s Inside Montana Trip Pictures...2 Humor...2 Motorcycle Show Thank You s...4 Travel Pics...6 Safety First...8 News & Notices...9 Classifieds...10 Calgary Area Staff Listing...10
2 Wing Wag February, 2009 Page 2 Photos by: Warran & Gilda Lench his A.M. after church we were talking motorcycles and John Doe told me about a friend of his who has two bikes. One is a Gold Wing that he rides in the day light and it is comfortable. The other is a Harley that he rides at night. Why does he ride it at night? Because it makes so much noise he hopes it will scare the moose and deer off the road in front of him. Submitted by Kim Coubrough as heard by his father in Wainwright, AB
3 Wing Wag February, 2009 Page 3 (Continued from page 1) smart tire air pressure warning system, blind spot mirrors, LED turn signal mirrors, flashing headlight, brake light modulators, etc. Jackets should have some sort of reflective material on the outside so both the rider and passenger can be visible at night. If you are ever separated from the motorcycle in an accident at night, being seen at a distance could save your life. A popular and affordable safety item is a reflective safety vest. Easily worn over jackets, provides excellent visibility to oncoming motorists and can be worn over anything. Here s some of my own opinions on riding my Gold Wing safer based on my experience defending myself on our public roads. Sharing information on safety is something we can all learn about and share here together. 1. Defend your lane. Motorcycles are entitled to a full lane of traffic. Traveling near the centerline discourages people from encroaching on your lane. 2. Avoid obstacles. When traveling behind a car or truck, they may tend to "straddle" an obstacle in the road (like potholes or roadkill) rather than swerve around it. If you are traveling in the center of the lane, by the time the obstacle is revealed to you, there would be no time to react. If the obstacle is near the centerline, the car or truck will be forced to go around it, giving an indication that you should do likewise. 3. Less oil on the road. The center part of the lane is the part that gets the most oil dripped on it from vehicles passing over it. The oil slick can get slippery, especially after a rain. 4. Avoid animals. At night, the center of the road gives the most space buffer from animals running out into the road, possibly giving you time to react. Having a deer or animal alert really helps too. There are chrome stick-on types, as well as the more effective electric type. Animals can hear these when properly mounted on your bike, but we cannot. 5. Passing scenario 1: There are 2 cars behind you, 1 in front of you. You are riding in the middle of the lane, not the one closest to the centerline. The last car in line decides to pass the car behind you. He see's the gap and decides to go for it, not realizing there s a motorcycle in that lane. 6. Passing scenario 2: You are behind a long line of cars or trucks. Behind you is a stretch of open road before the next pack of cars. You are riding fairly close to the shoulder. A car in the oncoming lane decides to dart out and pass after the long line of cars. He "shoots the gap" a little too early, not realizing you are behind the cars. 7. Visibility to merging traffic. Riding the centerline makes you most visible to cars waiting at intersections to pull out. 8. Stay in their mirror. When travelling behind vehicles, especially trucks, be in their drivers side mirror as a constant reminder that you're behind them. They may be less likely to suddenly stop if they miss their turn knowing there is someone behind them, instead opting to go to the next intersection. 9. Practice lane sharing. It's develops good lane discipline to force yourself to stay in 1/3 of a lane of traffic, rather than allow yourself to wander all over in your lane. It could come in handy on bigger group rides where lane-sharing is expected. 10.Louder Horns. Having louder horns also really helps, have you ever started beeping at someone cutting you off and they never heard your stock horn. Invest in some loud chrome air horns, when you see trouble coming and beep your horn, they will hear you! There are exceptions to "riding the centerline". I tend to adjust my lane position depending on traffic situations. Curves are one possible exception. If there is a car looking to pass an oncoming semi, I will tend to move over a little to make sure they see me. Avoiding the wind blast might be another reason. Many riders recommend Installing a belly pan on a Gold Wing to reduce the effects of side winds in addition to protecting your engine and plastic coolant tank. Stay safe! WW
