There is rarely a single cause of any motorcycle crash. Often it is the things we do before we go on the fateful ride that will determine if we have a story to tell or bills to pay.

Kevin, I came to your channel 18 months into McRider being live and was hooked immediately. All the safety tips and the way you explained the techniques, along with miles and miles of practice, help me go from a novice rider on Feb 2018 to a Ridercoach Candidate just a year later. You were one of the reasons I became a motorcycle trainer, and have to confess, I've used some of your tips on my classes from time to time. Congratulations and see you on the road!

I am a new and old (66) rider. The MCrider videos, forums, and field guide have taught me so much about what I need to know to ride safely. And how to use that knowledge to practice and develop my skills.

The Forums include invaluable practical comments from both riding instructors and long-time riders.

Kevin—soothing demeanor; calm, cool, collected, articulate, methodical, and precise. Thank you SO much for sharing your keen insight, experience, and in-depth knowledge. You're a treasure to the motorcycle community!

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 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.

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.

I’ve never met a more open and welcoming community! The depth and breadth of knowledge is amazing. The instructions are clear, concise, and to the point. Support and answers to your questions are at your fingertips.

If you’re considering joining the community don’t hesitate. You can spend a little now to avoid spending a lot later. As they say – an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!

Love your channel and it has helped me keep a level head when I ride, keep up the good work, God bless from Australia🇦🇺

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!
