  • While riding the bike,never fix your eyes  on the biker infront of you because when you will keep on staring at them you will begin to follow him and if the biker infront of you goes off road or falls from the bike you will do the same.  You should keep a 2 second distance from the biker infront of you because if anything wrong happens to him than you might atleast go to save him and also you wont face the same problem. You will be able to call for some help from others.
  • Its important to maintain a cohesive group. And by a cohesive group I mean that every rider shouldn’t ride their bikes side by side.
