Roger Lee Hayden Films PSA For Motorcycle Safety

Motorcycle safety is one of the foremost issues in the riding
world, with battles going on in just about every state over
motorcycle helmet laws. While many motorcyclists feel that they
should have the option of wearing what they want out on the road,
that doesn't stop the issue of safety education from being
important.
Michael Jordan Motorsports and the National Guard recently teamed
up for a new public service announcement (PSA) featuring AMA
Superbike rider Roger Lee Hayden. In the ad, Hayden talks about his
own journey to the top of motorsports, and how he personally has
learned that safe motorcycle gear can
be a lifesaver.
"Whether you're a beginner or riding for some time, the pavement is
just as hard," Hayden says in the ad. "I've been riding for over 20
years and I never ride without my helmet, my gloves, my boots or my
leathers. Make sure you always wear your safety gear. It might just
save your life."
Hayden also points out that many see what he does on the track as
dangerous - but in reality, there are few distractions or obstacles
he has to deal with. If anything, people should be wearing
motorcycle helmets and other proper protection
gear out on the road where there are other cars, curbs,
potholes, traffic lights and other potential dangers, the ad
states.
