Hi, I am a foreign student currently living in London. I’ve studied in Malaysia and Singapore as well. All my life I’ve always wanted bikes more than cars but I am also very worried about safety. This is because I know more than a few people who have had accidents while biking and nearly died.
I am interested in getting a bike here but I’m worried for my own safety. I know that if I were to get a bike, I wont be riding fast or dangerously and yet I am still worried for my life. What’s your opinion?
Hello and welcome to the site.
Clearly motorcycling has inherent risks but the majority of riders will have made the decision that they feel confident enough in their riding to deal with most of the situations that may arise in order to remain as safe as possible.
It would help if you provided a bit more background on yourself, where your interest in bikes came from, have you ever ridden (even if not on public roads), do you ride a bicycle? do you drive?
The bottom line is confidence ad that can generally be built up over time.
What are your main fears?
