They include one on urban biking, one on sports bike riding, a video of the 'Perfect day' (which has signs warning a rider of hazards etc.) and one for other motorists telling them to 'LOOK OUT FOR MOTORCYCLISTS'. There have also been previous 'Think Bike' campaigns, some of which involved film of a car turning right and hitting an overtaking motorcyclist.
