The 'safest' place to ride?

[swbarnett]

Head removed from top off neck indicates road may not have been quite safe.......

Indeed.

That's why the word "safe" is in inverted commas. The idea of total safety is a myth. But with the right attitude you can get closer to it than otherwise.

There are no safe roads.

Having said that, the safest place to ride is within your own level of ability.

Looking at the "KB Statistics"... the open roads have caused more deaths than "in-town".

I voted other... Race track. Every one (should) be going the same way, you've got lots of run off if you do bin it and paramedics just a few minutes away

Toatally agree...Im so sick of being paranoid every time I head down the Buller Gorge as if the shit surface,new potholes,campervans stopped in the middle of the road, fuckwits cutting corners wasnt bad enough, then the legions of mufti cops mean Im thinking too much about all these factors all the time rather on concentrating on what Im really out there to do....
The track's like sex...a good one will keep you thinking about it for days

there is no safe place to ride if you are worried stick to your driveway

None of the above list is intrinsicly safe, or even more intrinsicly safe than another just have different variables.

The only "safe" place to ride is the right head space.
