Your videos have guided me before, and since I started riding just about one year ago, I constantly think about your words of wisdom while riding.

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!

You provide well-made videos, instruction, and strategies for us all to become great and safe riders. I have been riding street bikes since 1978 and I enjoy your videos and I just keep on learning from you, thanks!

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

…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.

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 for caring enough to share education!! Your weekly video helps me renew my vow to my wife, ride safe and come home alive. Thanks, Kevin

Thanks for your videos. You've got me out in the parking lot practicing my skills regularly. I have gained a lot of confidence and I'm enjoying riding more.

MCRider will change and possibly save your motorcycling life.

After a 15 yr break I decided to get back into riding, I’d never had formal instruction (dirt bikes as a kid) and it showed when I rode with my wife, who I had insisted get training. She was more technically proficient than I was because she had only learned the right way. I started watching videos and some were good some weren’t but when I found Kevin’s MCRider videos I knew I’d found the series of instruction I needed.

Within a few weeks of practicing skills from his YouTube channel, I decided I really wanted to support what he was doing and I became a Member of MC Rider and that unlocked a whole additional resource. If you're looking to improve your motorcycling skills in an extremely supportive community, you found the place.
