Your helmet is your most important piece of gear, but protection only works if the fit is right.

Watch how MotoCAP tests helmets for impact absorption, and make sure your helmet is secure, comfortable, and built for your ride.

Share the road. Keep everyone safe.

If you haven’t seen them, look again.

Motorcyclists can be easy to miss, especially at intersections and during U-turns. Check your mirrors, do a head check and take that extra moment before you move.

And riders, give drivers every chance to spot you. Wear light or reflective gear and position yourself where you can be seen.

A little more visibility helps everyone share the road and keep everyone safe.

A few small habits can make a big difference on every ride.

Gear up, even for the short trips. Stay visible. Ride to the conditions. And always leave yourself enough room to react.

Simple choices that help us share the road and keep everyone safe.

A few highlights from a very good morning at Birrarung Marr 🏍️

We kicked off Motorcyclist Awareness Month with riders, road users and plenty of bikes coming together for our community event.

There was a Q&A with Ross Noble, Show & Shine, bike displays, giveaways and plenty of conversations about what it means to look out for each other on the road.

Thanks to everyone who came down and made a morning of it. A pretty good way to kick off a month dedicated to looking out for each other on the road.

Riders and drivers have plenty to say about each other.

So for Motorcyclist Awareness Month, Ross Noble hit the streets to ask what everyone wished the other side understood.

From protective gear and visibility to leaving enough room, the answers had more in common than you might think.

Turns out, we all want the same thing: to share the road and keep everyone safe.

Good gear is more than just how it looks. It is about how it holds up when you need it most.

Watch how materials, seams, and impact protection stack up in a slide, and learn how to use MotoCAP to check your jacket's score before you buy.

Share the road. Keep everyone safe.
