Tips for Riding a Motorcycle in the Rain

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

George Alumasa

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.

The weekly videos, field guide, and forums are a tool that has value far beyond the cost of admission. In MCrider, I have found encouragement, practical and easy-to-follow tips, and mentorship to pursue excellence in developing sharper road skills and road strategy to take full ownership of my safety while on two wheels. Thank you, Kevin, for the most valuable resource available to motorcyclists on the web!

Just checked out the new site, and love it Kevin! Your YouTube training videos have probably helped this 67 yr old rider from killing himself a few times. Keep up the great work!!

Your channel should be mandatory training for car drivers, not just riders.

Anton Glukhovsky

Even though I teach people to ride, and have all this experience to share and help people with… I still have the sense that I am walking among giants when I visit the MCrider forums.

Yes Kevin has saved me, If there is one thing that I have learned it is this, The carpark is the place to learn, almost everything, I used to think that it was normal to duck walk, (sometimes) for example as it was (and still is a common sight, I had huge problems mastering tight U-turns, in fact never thought I could master it, until one day it all came together, So for me, the 1 thing is that it is essential to practice in the carpark, with the right techniques until te maneuvers are muscle memory

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.
