It took me about 30 minutes to learn the basics of riding a motorcycle. But to learn how to ride it well? That takes a long time. My MSF class happened decades ago, and I’m still learning. The barrier of entry for learning is ridiculously low for a motorcycle, but the learning curve goes on forever. And that’s because there is a truckload of things you need to keep in mind when you’re on a bike that you don’t when you’re in a car. Cars don’t tip over when you make mistakes. They also don’t tip over when some other…

I stared at my Ninja ZX-11. Barely any scratches, it was a week old. “Alright, so how long until I get good at riding this?” “You do it for long enough until you get a false sense of invincibility.”, my brother chuckled. That was over two decades ago. And even though my brother was joking, there was a modicum of truth to it. That false sense of invincibility has done a lot of people dirty . I’ve covered thousands of miles of asphalt ever since I first started riding. Accustomed myself to all the riding conditions. And acquainted myself with…

If you’re looking to extend your riding season into the coldest months of the year without sacrificing your comfort, it’s a good idea to look into a pair of heated motorcycle gloves – these are usually designed to be extra-warm even without the ‘heating’ element, but there’s not much better than slipping cold hands into heated gloves before heading back out onto cold, icy or snowy roads.
