How to read the road…

This week we learn to read the road and listen to what it is saying to us. A conscientious rider will use clues like the limit point to know when to maintain speed, slow down or speed up.

Thanks for the great tips. I’ve only been riding a few months, and could have avoided the one spill I had if I’d watched more of your videos beforehand!

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.

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.

Many congratulations and thanks for following your passion while sharing your knowledge along with your commitment to safe and fun motorcycling education. I mention your channel to many of my classes as a valuable resource for information!

The MCrider forums are the best online resource I’ve found on the web. Becoming a motorcyclist is a lifetime of learning and it is great to have a place to find the right help with taking next steps. There are those times along that journey where we need to go back to review basics. MCrider is there in both cases. Whether we are a beginner, highly experienced, or anywhere in between, we have found the right place, to be both enriched, and to add to others’ lives.

…your channel is a “School” I can attend and learn many riding skills and information that it would take years to gather. I have always been taught to seek out the experts if you want to learn. For me, when I ride I remember the videos and information that I have learned. You really have an impact on my riding and that has helped me tremendously.

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!
