Fantastic and really helpful video. Thanks for taking the time to film and share.

Kevin’s videos and sage advise is very helpful and reinforces the right things to do and what not to do. I especially like his way of teaching, a little laid back but always worth listening to. Like he says, the most important “nut on the bike is the one attached to the handle bars”, be sure it’s on tight and right.

I’ve been riding on and off for most of my 64 years. After being away for the last 10 years I found a used cruiser for sale and started doing research on the internet for accessories and other parts. The YouTube algorithm brought me to MCRider and I’ve been immersed ever since – finally becoming a member just a few days ago.

I’ve never met a more open and welcoming community! The depth and breadth of knowledge is amazing. The instructions are clear, concise, and to the point. Support and answers to your questions are at your fingertips.

If you’re considering joining the community don’t hesitate. You can spend a little now to avoid spending a lot later. As they say – an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!

MCrider is the ultimate source for motorcycle road strategy and safety education. It is a must have for riders at any level.

After a 35 year hiatus, I decided to return to riding motorcycles. Internet searches for instructional material provided a vast array of choices for my questions. MCRider was one that coming up with lessons for the topics I was interested in. The videos on YouTube were extremely helpful in rebuilding my confidence and skill level. I was aware there was a forum for quite some time before joining and am glad I took the plunge. The depth of knowledge from the membership, as well as the willingness to answer questions and offer guidance cannot be overstated. I purchased some practice cones and used the Field Guide exercises to hone my riding skills and my practice sessions are now something I look forward to.

Perhaps the most beneficial parts of the forum are the discussions pertaining to safe riding and rider awareness. One of the forum members made a comment to the effect of ” A superior rider uses his superior judgment to avoid situations which require the use of his superior skill.” That statement stays in the forefront of my mind and I believe it helps make me a better/safer rider. I am much more aware of the potential dangers due to reading the discussions on the forum and it has helped increase my enjoyment of being on 2 wheels again.

Kevin—soothing demeanor; calm, cool, collected, articulate, methodical, and precise. Thank you SO much for sharing your keen insight, experience, and in-depth knowledge. You’re a treasure to the motorcycle community!

Hey Kevin. Just letting you know I’ve been watching and practicing your videos for 2 years. You saved my butt last night man. Typical story. Big deer just standing in road, 45 mph, emergency braking, started skidding, balance of front and rear brakes and allow bike to do what it does to come to controlled slow. Keep it up sir. You’ll never know how many lives you saved because the wreck never happened.

LOVE the new site Kevin. As a new (returning) rider and IT guy, it is MUCH appreciated, especially the mobile optimization. That is so important these days and perfect for parking lot training. BEST DAMN MOTORCYCLE CONTENT ON YOUTUBE!

I started riding late in life, partly because I found MCrider. MCrider is loaded with videos and training tips to improve your riding.
Kevin’s clear and concise teaching style provides the tools and understanding on so many biking topics – he and the other riders are a wealth of information. The forum has been a great place to find other riders talking about any motorcycle topic under the sun. If you have motorcycle riding questions – MCrider is a great place to be!
