Awareness
| 22 February 2010
- Jumps are not flagged allowing riders down to be at risk of being landed on.
- Riders of all ages are on the track at the same time.
- Riders of all ability are on the track at the same time.
- Bikes of all sizes are on the track at the same time.
- Immediate Response is not on site when riders are practicing.
The Blake Webb Motorcycle Safety Awareness Foundation works hard to promote safety at motocross tracks, and educate according to the foundation guidlines. Our goal is to have a trained flagger at every jump at every motocross track at every practice. Another goal is to seperate riders according to bike size during open practice. The 50’s should be on a pee wee track or their own practice. The 65’s and 85’s should have their own practice time seperate from the bigger bikes, which are 125’s, 250’s and 450’s. These two safety guidlines would have prevented the loss of Blake’s life.
