Join the Harley-Davidson 2010 Motorcycle Mosiac

The cover of the 2010 Harley-Davidson motorcycle catalog will be a photo mosaic of images of the people who ride our motorcycles and are part of the Harley-Davidson family. Anyone worldwide is able to pick a favorite photo with their bike or of a riding experience (rallies, events, etc.) and upload it to the mosaic through the Harley-Davidson website.
Full details and instructions on how to submit are here:
http://www.harley-davidson-mosaic.com/

They want to collect at least 10,000 photos by Friday, May 15th. Once a photo is submitted, Harley-Davidson send out an email to confirm its receipt. From there you'll be able to review and locate your photo in the mosaic.

Ride safe.

New motorcycle safety cartoons

Well at last a positive move to improve motorcycle safety using humour as the medium. In a new Europe wide road safety campaign developed by the Association des Constructeurs Europeens de Motorcycles (ACEM) 13 cartoons will be released on a monthly basis to highlight and educate about the everyday risks riders of powered two wheelers (PTWs) face.

The aim of the campaign is to raise riders awareness of the various risks posed by road layouts and traffic sitautions.

Lucky 13 is a motorcyclist and is the main star of the cartoons. Like many others he is on the road every day. He’s also a lucky guy. He doesn’t know that the roadway isn’t always a safe place to ride his motorcycle, yet some how he pulls through every time. Don’t be like him, don’t count on your luck like he does. And learn from his mistakes.

The first cartoon is entitled "How to Avoid Accidents at Junctions" - see cartoon below.


You can download the cartoon for yourself from http://www.acem.eu/cartoon.

Well done the the ACEM, hopefully these cartoons will leading to greater awareness of the risks involved in riding a motorcycle, scooter or moped!

Ride safe.
