Answer

- Always wear a helmet to protect yourself, especially when riding in busy traffic areas. - Stay aware of local traffic rules, as they may differ from your home country, and watch out for pedestrians and other vehicles. - Consider cycling during cooler times of the day, such as early morning or late afternoon, to avoid the heat and ensure hydration. Road-safety note: A rental shop handing over a motorcycle does not prove you are legally licensed or insured. Use the correct motorcycle entitlement and international permit where required, wear a proper helmet and verify policy exclusions.
