Roadsafe and Honda Australia Rider Training (HART) are collaborating on a summer promotion to encourage motorcyclists to undertake further skills training and to encourage the wearing of protective clothing during the summer months.

During November and December 2010 and January 2011, HART’s Learner to Licence, Refresher, Intermediate and Advanced I courses will be discounted by $40, plus each participant will receive a FREE pair of DriRider DriMesh summer riding gloves, thanks to Roadsafe.

The promotion is valid at the Somerton, Kilsyth and Cranbourne locations.

The gloves are constructed of the highest grade premium full grain leather and feature carbon fibre knuckle protectors, abrasion resistant mesh on the back and side panels, Velcro wrist closure and more.

HART’s Victorian manager Grant Carr says that their policy is to always promote the wearing of safety gear whilst riding a motorcycle, particularly during the summer when bitumen becomes extremely hot.

“We’re really pleased that Roadsafe has jumped on board again to offer an incentive for both new and experienced riders to do everything they can to avoid injury when out enjoying the roads this season,” he explained.

HART is an accredited provider of rider training programs, and offer road and off road courses from beginner to advanced, including specialised courses for those returning to riding after a sustained break.

HART is the largest provider of its kind in the country and has trained thousands of riders since its inception in 1989.
