ROAD POSITIONING ENCOMPASSES EVERYTHING IN RELATION TO DEFENSIVE MOTORCYCLE RIDING AND BEING SAFE. HERE'S A DEMONSTRATION OF WHAT I DO TO REDUCE CONFLICT WITH OTHER VEHICLES AND KEEP MYSELF SAFE WHILST RIDING IN BUILT UP AREAS. RANDOM MOVEMENT IN YOUR LANE IS OKAY BUT MAKE YOUR POSITIONING MEANINGFUL, INCREASE YOUR VIEW AND DECREASE YOUR DANGER. YOUR SAFETY ISN'T RANDOM, IT'S DOWN TO HOW AND WHERE YOU POSITION YOURSELF ON THE ROAD.
WATCH OUT FOR MY DECISION MAKING, LIKE WHEN TO CHANGE LANES TO AVOID THE CHANCES OF A COLLISION LIKE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE VIDEO WITH THE MAZDA. TAKE NOTE OF WHERE I POSITION MY BIKE WHEN AT A STANDSTILL. SEE HOW I USE ALL OF THE ROAD TO BE A PROMINENT RIDER AND WATCH HOW I AM CONSTANTLY ASSESSING AND REASSESSING WHETHER OR NOT I'M IN THE BEST POSITION TO BE SEEN. MOTORCYCLING ISN'T JUST A FORM OF TRANSPORT, IT'S A SKILL THAT NEEDS TO BE CONSTANTLY PRACTICED AND IMPROVED, FROM THE MICRO CONTROL OF YOUR CLUTCH TO SMOOTH BRAKING AND ACCELERATION, COMBINED WITH READING THE ROAD AND LEARNING HOW TO PREDICT TRAFFIC BEHAVIOUR.
