#riding academy

Yamaha Motor Philippines extended an invitation through CAGI (Car Awards Group, Inc.) to join them as they conduct their Riding Academy -- an event that teaches and encourages riders safe practices and habits on motorcycles. There was a film showing that highlighted important tips when riding motorcycles. Some of this includes: Always wearing a helmet The company couldn't stress enough how important wearing a helmet is when you ride. Always doing your best to be noticed When riding a motorcycle, it is imperative that you make yourself and your bike seen by other motorists. Always turning your headlights on Whether you're riding at night or noon time, you should always turn your headlight on for extra visibility on the road. Always checking before riding Although not shown in the video but learned from one of the facilitators, you should always check everything before you ride. During our brief time riding it, we did feel that it doesn't need a lot of balance to keep it running straight. Riding the Tricity, uneven surfaces and small bumps aren't something you significantly feel thanks to its dual independent suspensions. At the end of the day, all the participants were recognized to have attended the Safety Riding Course of Yamaha and we all went home with better knowledge and understanding of riding motorcycles.
