The Warrior's Code
Prepared Mind
Every ride begins before you touch the motorcycle. Mental preparation, route planning, and gear inspection are as important as fuel in your tank.
Defensive Posture
Assume invisibility. Assume unpredictability in others. Position yourself with escape routes, maintain spacing, and never trust that others see you.
Continuous Learning
Every close call is a lesson. Every safe ride is practice. Skills deteriorate without practice, so train deliberately and often.
Gear as Armor
Your protective gear is not optional equipment—it's your armor in the battlefield of traffic. Choose it wisely, maintain it properly, wear it always.
