Great video. Keep them coming

The first year I had my Harley I dropped it two times when stopping at an intersection. You pointed out that I was turning the handlebars and hitting the front brake and after practicing your stop and go technics I no longer have trouble in that area. I also have used the brake and escape technic when confronted with a pick-up truck pulling a trailer pulled out in front of me and through practicing in a parking lot, it just became second nature and I avoided what could have been a really bad situation! Thanks for all the great knowledge and I will be watching anything that you will be putting on YouTube! I know that I have a long way to go but I am definitely a better rider since I began to do your drills!

Thanks, Kevin of mc rider-I have learned a lot from you

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.

This is the first videos I’ve seen from him. As an accomplished law enforcement motor instructor, he knows what he’s talking about. I would refer people to his page.

You add a lot of values to riders of all levels. Thumbs up!

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!

Returning to motorcycling after a two decade hiatus, I didn’t even know the right questions to ask. As I immersed myself in my new owners manual, I had more questions. MCRider has established itself as the go-to web site for the developing rider in all of us. The first, most important lesson I learned from everyone is their desire for my success. In a world where too many are seeking another’s failure, failure on two wheels is a failure of the teacher AND the student. Every members thoughts an opinions are oriented towards success and safety for each other. Here I found the confidence to put my leg over a GoldWing and succeed in taming a potentially wild horse into an extension of my desire to ride well and see everyone on the road, wherever they may be. For now, I learn. Soon, I shall be the teacher because of MCRider.

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.

Hello from Melbourne Australia. Thanks for your videos. As an inexperienced rider, your advice is fantastic. Please keep up the good work.
