There are plenty of nightmare stories around about the dangers of riding a motorbike, but there are also plenty of good reasons to learn.
In the first instance, a motorbike is a far more convenient vehicle than a car. It can filter through a traffic jam so that you will experience fewer hold ups, therefore you are more likely to get to your destination in a stress-free state. This can make commuting to and from work far easier than in a car.
Saving money
The cost of running a motorbike or scooter can be far cheaper than running a car. A motorbike can get more miles to the gallon than a car, so with increases in fuel prices, it will be far more cost effective to get a motorbike. Even the cost of buying a motorbike can be far cheaper than a car.
Stylish
There is no denying that riding a motorbike is cool and everyone can look stylish when they arrive at their destination. Leather riding gear is widely available for both men and women. These are outer clothes though, designed to protect the skin as much as possible in the event of an accident. It is important to be comfortable with what you wear underneath the leather gear. For women, there is a wide range of women’s activewear that will ensure that you are comfortable and move as easily as you drive. The range of women’s activewear goes from leggings to track suits and all of it is designed to ensure that you are not restricted in movement.
