I would think about her driving persona and how it might translate to a riding persona.
Mrs. Stichill is a somewhat over-cautious, tentative driver. She's that person who uses the accelerator lightly, drives at or below the speed limit, and taps the brakes in reaction to any external stimulus or change in conditions. The whole drive occurs at 0.75x the "normal" speed of execution. I think she would be simply too cautious and be unable to operate the bike as deliberately and/or aggressively as it needs to be in order to stay safe and in control of certain situations. On a bike, going slower or getting lightly on the brakes is not always the safer action. Would her abundance of observation and caution make her a safer rider? In some regards it would, but I think the ability to act decisively with determination is also a necessary trait to have for safe riding.
