I recently posted a list of Five Ways to Cheat Death on a Motorcycle... but because you can never offer too many tips for avoiding a nasty accident, I dug up even more ways to stay safe on a bike.
This time around, the pointers come from the folks at Allstate Insurance, who tell us that June kicks off the deadliest stretch of months for motorcyclists. According to the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) Encyclopedia, 2010 saw 534 rider fatalities in June, the third most fatal month of that year; July came in second with 563 rider casualties, and August was the deadliest month with 576 fatalities.
To see Allstate's suggestions on safer riding, check out Five (More) Ways to Cheat Death on a Motorcycle, and for the original list of five safety measures, click here.
