o Familiarize yourself with all the bike's features.

with your visibility or control of the bike. Don't use items that may restrict your hearing.
o Maintain a comfortable stopping distance from all
other riders, vehicles and objects. Safe braking distance and forces are subject to the prevailing weather and road conditions.
Wet Weather Riding
Wet weather impairs traction, both for the rider and for other vehicles sharing the road. The risk of accident is dramatically increased in wet conditions. In wet weather you need to take extra care. In wet conditions, the stopping power of your brakes (as well as the brakes of other vehicles sharing the road) is dramatically reduced. This makes it harder to control speed and easier to lose control. To make sure that you can slow
