    We all know the basics, and think of the system every time we ride, however reminders are never a waste of time. Here our special correspondent gives a bitesize reminder of IPSGA and the core doctrines thinking riders should always have in mind

    Information

      • Take information - look all around you; scan the in-front and to the sides
      • Use information - plan how to deal with hazards and make plans for anything unexpected
      • Give information - use indicators, brake lights, flashing headlamps or your horn to warn other road users; they will benefit from it

        Position

        Safety. Stability. View. Position yourself so you can negotiate hazards safely and smoothly.

        Remember to observe behind you and take note of any other road users. It is essential to know what is happening around you and to check your mirrors each and every time you change your position or speed.

        Speed

        Adjust your speed appropriately to the hazard. Consider the visibility, degree of cornering required and activity of any other road users

        Gear

        Select the appropriate gear for the speed that you plan to use when negotiating the hazard

        Acceleration

        Consider observations to the rear as needed, using the throttle to maintain your speed and stability through the hazard.

         

        What do you need to boost your performance?

        C.I.K.Ass  - in a nutshell, to be a good rider takes more than natural ability and coaching. Riders need to:-

        • Concentrate to a high level at all times when riding
        • Identify potential risks around them constantly
        • Know their abilities and limitations ... and those of their bike
        • Assess the environment they are riding in and consider the weather, road conditions, the movements and/or behaviour of those around them, selecting the appropriate gear for the speed they plan to use when negotiating hazards.
