With spring on the way it will soon be the perfect time for getting out on the motorbike - but firefighters are urging people to take extra care to make sure it, and you, are ready for the road.

Statistics show that injuries to motorcyclists are out of proportion to their presence on our roads. Motorcyclists are just 1% of total road traffic, but account for 19% of all road user deaths.
