Why your motorbike might not be the only thing that needs a bit of work before you head out on the roads this summer…

With spring in full swing and summer fast approaching, motorcyclists are going to be covering twice as many miles between June and August...

I drive.

1. After i have crashed.
2. When i feel like crap or tired.
3. At any time of the day
4. In any weather, including snow and ice and sub-zero temperatures.

And

1. I never exercise except occasional walking
2. I jump on the bike and go and dont consider my phyisic or mental state

And i also think

1. Burning calories like a brisk walk is a load of b*ll*cks
2. Biking is for everybody, and it doesn't matter if they are 25stone or underweight
3. This article assumes all people ride in summer, when this is untrue

But the article is correct about

1. New riders article is correct
2. The bit about being dehydrated is very important, and i recommend drinking a bottle of water every time you stop for fuel etc.
