I’ve been riding for 50 years and I’m still learning, there’s always something to learn.

Robert Esposito

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!!

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

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.

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!

I am a returning rider after twenty years. As I discovered MCRider, wisdom began to wash over me very quickly. I was truly amazed at how quickly I began to learn and refine my rider skills to become a rider that was not only safer, but better. The forum is a gold mine of discussion with intelligent conversation and no distasteful garbage. Tying that together with access to the Field Guide to help practice the skills I learn about; I have found that my MCRider membership is paying dividends in my motorcycle happy factor!

The information and advice I am able to access on this site…to me absolutely LIFE SAVING…

Herbert C Bracy

Thanks Kevin, once again an outstanding video! I pray the Lord continues to bless you and this channel!

McRider gave me confidence when I was a complete novice and it inspires me to improve.
It has also increased my enjoyment, no end.
Kevin you’re mighty!
