ENEOS Motor Oil, Japan’s No. 1 Oil Company, recently invited members of the motoring media and young kids to learn the basics of how to safely ride on two-wheels with the help of ENEOS Brand Ambassador and highly respected motorcycle riding coach Mel Aquino. 

“We are not only committed to provide products and services that are safe and secure, but we also advocate for safety on the road especially for the motorcycle riding public,” said Kazumasa Imai, President of ENEOS Philippines Corporation (ENEPH).

Data shows that the motorcycles industry in the Philippines is the 5th largest in the World. Motorcycles account for 71% of our total registered vehicle population and is seen to continually grow in the coming years. 

“Given the very high number of riders in the country, we intend to play a major role in helping the community value safety both off-road and on-road. Helping us in this endeavor are our brand ambassadors that are champion riders who understand that safety is paramount whether on the racetrack or on public roads,” said Roscel Isip, General Manager, Marketing & Planning of ENEPH.

During the one-day seminar at the Motorcycle Riding School Philippines by Mel Aquino at KRB MX Speedwayin Antipolo, participants learned about the importance of wearing the correct riding gear, the need to conduct a pre-ride inspection, the 7 different riding postures, braking techniques, cornering and the 3 types of leaning, and tips in proper road behavior. The afternoon was spent going around the off-road track where Coach Mel and his team of coaches conducted hands-on training for better appreciation and application.

“The number 1 cause of motorcycle accidents is human error and we hope to address that through proper motorcycle safety training. Learning in our off-road track would greatly benefit an on-road rider especially when road conditions are less than ideal,” said Coach Mel Aquino. “We also have a program specifically for kids so they start with the right fundamentals and can have more fun riding as they grow older.”
