24.01.2022 COURSE POSTPONED Unfortunately I have been forced to cancel the Ride Right Course Scheduled for 21st June due to the public liability insurance for these type of courses being suspended until after 1sy July because of the Coronavirus restrictions still being in place in some states. I apologize for the late notification and will advertise the date of the course we will run in July.

23.01.2022 Have you say on the upcoming Road Safety Strategy by visiting the website imaginezero.rsc.wa.gov.au This is our chance as motorcycle riders to have our voices heard and to influence the Government to consider motorcycle riders in this road safety strategy. So get onto it and fill in your thought on the survey, it is no good complaining about lack of action by the Government on rider safety if you dont get involved. Dave Wright

17.01.2022 Western Australia Safety Report March/April 2019 I hope you are all well and not put off riding too much by the change in the weather. The Easter Long Weekend break is coming up fast and I would encourage all riders to take extra care on our roads as this is the time when many car drivers take to our country roads for the first time in a year and we unfortunately have to make allowances for there lack of highway knowledge and skills to survive....Continue reading

10.01.2022 STAR RATED PROTECTIVE MOTORCYCLE CLOTHING In September 2018, a motorcycle protective clothing star rating called MotoCAP was launched across Australia and NZ. It is intended to help us make informed decisions when purchasing new motorcycle clothing to ensure that we get the best possible protection for us and our pillions from gear that is also suitable for our climate. Each year, 10% of the jackets, pants and gloves for road riding will be tested at Deakin University for ab...rasion and burst resistance, impact protection, thermal management and water resistance. To date, the test results for 31 Jackets, 29 pants and 13 gloves have been listed on the website with many more still in testing. I have visited the testing laboratory at Deakin University and observed first-hand the rigorous test that they put garments through to establish their star rating. The way the garments are sourced is also very good as their shoppers buy the garments off the shelf in motorcycle shops anonymously. This is to ensure that what is tested is of the same quality that you will be buying and not a special item sent to them by a manufacturer. Some of the test results can be very surprising as the cost or make is often not an indication of the best protection. However many manufacturers have responded to the test results and are improving the design and quality of their products to obtain a greater star rating which can only be good for us as riders and consumers. I suggest that you visit the website to learn about the testing and results before you buy your next jacket, pants, gloves and more. www.Motocap.com.au For motorcycle helmet star rating visit https://sharp.dft.gov.uk/

04.01.2022 RAC Comment in the Sunday Times April 29th 2018 (page 20) I feel that I need to clarify a comment by the RAC WA regarding there call for a star rated system for motorcycle helmet and protective clothing. This sort of comment shows just how out of touch the RAC WA is regarding riders needs and what is happening in Australia on this subject. The Australian Motorcycle Council have been backing a star system for protective clothing for over 8 years and are involved with a workin...g group that includes the WA Road Safety Commission and most other Australian and New Zealand road authorities. As recently as October 2017 a pilot scheme has been underway that involves blind testing of a wide range of protective clothing that is being purchased randomly from motorcycle shops around the country. This programme is being run by Liz De Rome and Professor Christopher Hurren from Deakin University, (both very well respected experts in this field)and it is anticipated that once completed this will become the Star Rating that the RACWA mentioned in the Sunday Times article. As it seems the RACWA were not aware of this work or that it is currently underway, should concern all motorcycle and moped riders. Dave Wright Vice Chair, Australian Motorcycle Council
