Summary

When you think ‘road hazards’, some of the obvious come to mind. Pot holes, uneven road surfaces, debris… those are just a few of the hazards we have to watch for, but the ones that are of the most concern are the ones you may not even think of. Clinton Smout has seen the statistics that prove that the road hazards he talks about today are ones that all riders need to be aware of and paying attention to at all times. In today’s episode of Rider Skills, some eye opening moments that will make you sit up and take notice. Photos and links can be found on our website at adventureriderradio.com.

line. I thought, well, okay, I guess, but really that's number one? That's number one? What I didn't realize is it wasn't his opinion. It's fact. It's based on research and data.
