Confidence can be costly… Feeling confident for your ride when on a dry road with your mates around? That’s when risk-taking creeps in. Most fatal biker crashes happen in good conditions, because that’s when riders let their guard down. Dry roads, clear skies, and a polished bike might feel like the perfect setup for a ride—but don’t let good weather fool you. In Derbyshire last year, 90% of fatal biker collisions were caused by rider error. And that’s not just young riders either, in 2024 60% of fatalities were men over 40… not the young riders you’d expect. So, if you’re planning a perfect ride in the perfect conditions, remember that the risk doesn’t disappear when the sun comes out. If you think you’re a skilled rider, why not put those skills to the test at a BikeSafe workshop? You’ll learn how to read the road, sharpen your awareness, and get expert feedback during an observed ride through Derbyshire’s stunning landscape. Whether you're looking to refresh your skills or take them to the next level, BikeSafe is your chance to ride smarter and make progress quicker. Book today at: https://orlo.uk/BikeSafe_UfTKC
