Golden Helmets plan tour
Commissioner James L.
Erskine recently announced
that the O.P.P. Golden
Helmets will begin their
1983 Fall Tour on September
The popular precision
motorcycle team is
renowned for giving a superb
exhibition of riding ability
which emphasizes total
control of the machine by
professional police riders.
"Motorcycles are a real
asset in those areas of the
Province where traffic is a
major problem," says Com-'
missiodaer Erskine.
"Our motorcycle officers are
proud of the skill they have
{leveloped to better assist the
motoring public".
Golden Helmets team
members are all regular
working O.P.P. officers and
many have performed with
the group for a number of
years.
The motorcycles used in
the performances are Harley
Davidson Police Specials
used for normal traffic
patrol work. They are
equipped with two-way
radios, electronic sirens,
emergency lights and most
importantly a professional
operator.
Commissioner Erskine
emphasizedthat the Golden
Helmets' performances are
based on precision riding.
"No tricks or stunts are
performed," he said. "It's a
matter of understanding the
capabilities of the motor-
cycle and keeping risks to an
absolute minimum".
A night performance by
the Golden Helmets is the
most spectacular of all. The
team runs through a pre -
planned routine with all of
the emergency lights work-
ing on each machine. The
spectator is treated to a
panorama of flashing red
and amber lights as the
riders weave andturn.
