Motorcycle Roadcraft

Police Riders handbook to Better Riding

The aim of Motorcycle Roadcraft is to improve the skill and safety of your riding so that the best use can be made of road and traffic conditions.

The Publication is often referred to in Evidence in Civil Court Actions as many road traffic reconstruction experts are familiar with its terms and guidance is often  sought from the relevant chapters in relation to Motorcycle Dynamics and Control.

Roadcraft is broken down into 10 Chapters and is an invaluable publication for motorcyclists seeking to improve skill but, as the book confirms, just reading Motorcycle Roadcraft will not make you a better rider as practice is an essential part of learning any skill.

Whilst Motorcycle Roadcraft is a textbook for police riders undertaking police rider training, it provides essential information for all riders.

The Chapters are broken down into :-

• Becoming a better rider
• The system of motorcycle control
• Observation
• Acceleration, using gears and brakes
• Cornering , balance and avoiding skids
• Signals
• Positioning
• Overtaking
• Motorway riding
• Speed and safety

Being a good rider means you never stop learning. The book is published by TSO Information and Publishing Solutions and can be purchased on-line through one of the UK’s main online book suppliers.
