Women must wear a full-face helmet whether riding as a passenger or driving the motorbike. In addition, ladies (like everyone else) should consider wearing long pants, ankle-covering boots, and a sturdy jacket with protective gloves. Women who plan to ride in areas where they may be exposed to traffic signals or railroad crossings should also carry a first-aid kit. Bikes are very useful tools for getting around town, but you need to use caution not to be injured while using them. If you're a female rider, there are some things about your bike and your attire that should be taken into consideration before you go out for a spin. First, riders should always wear a helmet. The brain and head are very sensitive organs, and without protection they can be severely damaged or even killed in an accident such as a car crash. Even if you don't think you'd be hurt if you had an accident, other people might be able to avoid injury by using better judgment or by being prepared for emergencies. A helmet will protect you against bumps, bruises, and fractures. Next, riders should dress in layers so they can remove layers to stay warm or cool off if needed. Layers help riders feel comfortable throughout different temperatures. Pants are good for riding outdoors on hot days; jackets provide extra protection from the elements when it's cold outside.
