You may be up to speed on safe driving techniques on city streets but if you intend to do some riding further out, you should be aware that you need a whole other set of tactics – especially when it comes to riding in deer populated areas.
And that means more than just riding with a motorcycle helmet. Consider these statistics from Defenders of Wildlife:
• 85% of all deer-motorcycle collisions result in human fatalities
• Almost half of all deer-related crashes occur because drivers swerve to avoid the animals
• More than 75,000 deer are killed each year in New York from vehicle collisions

Want to know the perfect way to spoil a wonderful ride on your motorcycle? 
Forget your motorcycle riding glasses.
In terms of safety and comfort, motorcycle riding glasses are of utmost importance. They obviously protect your eyes from flying debris but they also make seeing easier and shield your eyes from harmful UV rays.
Before you order a new pair, be sure you know the essential 3 “Ps” of choosing motorcycle riding glasses.
1. Polycarbonate – You can’t afford to skimp when it comes to this “P” factor. Polycarbonate is crucial in the design of motorcycle riding glasses to protect against potential impact in a fall.

If you’re lucky enough to live in an area where motorcycle riding is comfortable and warm all year round, then we hope you’re out enjoying those rides for the rest of us.
But if you live in a place that calls for winter motorcycle storage, we’ve got some tips to follow so your bike can get up and running quickly when you pull out your motorcycle jacket next spring:
1. Remove Your Battery – Whether it’s for one month or four, even when your battery is not in use, its charge is continually being sapped by the electrical instruments on your bike. When putting your motorcycle into storage disconnect the battery completely.
