I'm Linda Carlyle, a certified Master Tour Rider that has
logged a 100,000 Safe Miles since I started riding back in
1992. My rides have been a restored 78 Goldwing, a 90 FLHTC, a 97 Honda Valkyrie and
currently an 05 black cherry Goldwing. Why am I telling you this? Because I'm the Chapter Educator
for W!
The Rider Education division of GWRRA stands by the motto..."Safety
is for Life" and our mission is "To Save Lives Through
Quality, World Class Education."
At the Chapter level, you'll notice that there is a safety-related
article in each newsletter, and at our monthly gatherings,
there's a short safety talk. You'll hear about the Rider Education"Levels"
program, which each rider and co-rider is encouraged to participate
in. Periodically, we'll offer a hands-on learning day like
Medic-First Aid training, or a parking lot practice.
There are also opportunities for you to take part in seminars
on topics like"Team Riding", "Road Captains
Course"; "Co-Rider Seminar"; "Trike Seminar"
to name a few.
Hand-in-hand with motorcycle rider education comes "Motorist
Awareness" for the 4-wheeled folks. The national office
has a division set up for that too and it aims teach the general
public about "Sharing the Road."
