Been riding 55 years and this is something I work on still. Great information brother! Edit : Also here in western North Carolina i have an awful problem with knuckleheads mowing their yard grass into the roadway, why they put people in that kind of danger is beyond me
thanks for your support, i reckon the day i stop learning will be the day i die 🙂Cheers for adding your bit too mate. Ride Free 🙂 and re the grass, thats why i have always said, anyone who wants a car licence should have to ride a bike for at least 1 year first. you cant train stupid, but you can scare em lol
As a rider for the past 64 years, plus 36 years in motor racing (open-wheel and tin-tops) I'd completely endorse what you're saying. One of the first things I learnt was to get the braking done whilst in a straight line and as upright as possible.
What an excellent video. As an examiner for both RoSPA & IAM, and assisting in training Tutors and Advanced Tutors for the local group in East Yorkshire, I have posted this for our members to watch. It explains what, how and why we use the principles in laymans language and, accompanied with the images helps get the message across simply and efficiently. The use of System of motorcycle control for cornering can be difficult for people to get their heads around, even experienced riders. Well done - this is a great educational tool you have produced.
thanks for your support 🙂Cheers for adding your bit too mate. I couldnt ask for a better compliment than that, Ride Free 🙂 and pass on my best to the lads in the classes
This ties in with the teaching of the D1 emergency driving course in relation to corners and bends. It is all about managing your energy. Good to see you advocating the same techniques and good Roadcraft.
Mate this is beyond words. My youngest has just bought his first bike, there are some very good on road-courses here in NZ but your video gives so much more and he now has the link. Many thanks. Oh it also shows the pure joy on being on a bike.
mate thats the best compliment i could get, heres to many mappy years riding for him. and im glad it all comes across in the video like i wanted. give him my best wishes, hope you will both climb aboard. we have quite a few subscribers in New Zealand it seems :-)
I’m always trying to perfect my craft when riding my bike. It really seems that we are always learning better technique. There are endless videos here on RUclips, and it seems everyone has the best answers. Great video my friend. Sometimes keeping it simple is the best way to progressively learn. Another great channel I like to follow is “Canyon Chasers”. He just put out a great video on trail braking and whether it’s safe on public roads. Cheers, -Dave
it was uncomparable mate, so smooth, grippy and not a speck of ice even with the high passes, im sure they must dress it with something to prevent the ice sticking
At 5mins in you make a very important point; Even on roads that you know well & have traveled many times, you don't know if some oil was spilled or pea gravel was dropped in the corners you know by heart. That's a truth put in words in a way that makes it a true, "Pearl of Wisdom"..... that even I noticed. The steepness of the mountains you ride is hard to see thru the camera but the sheer number of turns testifies as to the angles of the hillside...... good teaching video. TY for it. peace
You know I wasn't complaining ! From the flat road surface & from the bike point of view it doesn't quite register just how majestic & tall those mountains really are but seeing the Twisties does tell you, the more twisted the roads are the more of an angle there is. Your gear is just fine, the bikes, you, and the mountains are just fine. Thanks for sharing and explaining so much with me ! I do appreciate the videos & your time. Tell the little lady I said, Hello from Texas. peace & I said above = Good Teaching Video
@@diggy-d8w i didnt take it as you complaining mate, it is funny how both cameras distort the field of view in different ways though. i chose this footage because you do get to see the roads below at certain points, so even though you dont see the gradient, you can tell it is there 🙂 being able to see whats coming from 2 or 3 corners on below you was mind expanding shall i say lol. hope all is good, and as always, glad you enjoyed it
Lens within cameras are about as robust as an engine on your bike, it's just on a micro level that we can't see and I meant no pun there. The "Flat Earth" people speak about the topic of wide angle lens causing an arc to form instead of what our actual eyes see as the horizon line which is level. I didn't know exactly how much you knew about cycles but I knew it was a great amount. Likewise the art of a Channel, cameras, mics, software, and the ability to edit it into a good product is another full art on top of what you do w/ bikes. I do happen to enjoy seeing what you do & if anything I share gives you insight or another perspective, enjoy & use it, if not it's alright. I'm learning right with you. It's 2am here & I gotta go outside & pull a battery out of a vehicle. Tell about it later.... peace
i know that will probably apply to most of the viewers, but its important to help newer riders, and we all forget things too :-) have a great weekend mate
glad you enjoyed it mate 🙂 Theres plenty more on the channel, hope you will look around and find something your interested in. there is more on the website too. and there will be more to come. Cheers for watching.Hope you will climb aboard. Ride Free 🙂
praise indeed, and yep, ive been at it a while lol. glad you enjoyed it mate 🙂 Theres plenty more on the channel, hope you will look around and find something your interested in. there is more on the website too. and there will be more to come.

Especially new riders need you to explain the "How To" in these simple terms. I once drove a friend to the airport (car) late, speeding through the twisties he asked me while white knuckling the oh shit handles "is 1 lane is not enough for you." I told him by going straight through the esses using all 3 lanes 2 v 1 that keeping the most tire on the road is the safest. Then going into the next set; I said hold on I'm going to stay in this lane, slight drift. He figured it out & made his plane. I can't articulate (how to) on a bike like you can, it's more of follow me & watch. Great video ;-)
cheers mate, as to the explanation, i always try to keep things simple, but i did have to think long and hard on this, because its all been 2nd nature to me for so long i dont think about what i do, until i have to try and deconstruct and explain it lol, so its a good exercise for my brain 🙂 thanks again for the compliment, sounds like that was an interesting journey lol
It seems to be the corners that get The Young Ones, but in saying that, I've had a few scary experiences in corners myself your bike tends to go where you're looking straight at the object you're heading for I learnt that less the hardway long ago .slower in Faster out great advice, I hope people take careful note of very Sound Advice. Great vid ✌️ 🇦🇺🤝🏴
look where you want to go is another piece of great advice 🙂 people get hung up on silly things and more accessories when looking at technique is often the best safety kit we can have 🙂
50% in corners, 50% on straights 😂. Srlsy though, without the narrator stating that there are, for example, 65 accident categories and that 50% of total crashes happen in this one category called 'corners', the statement doesn't help you judge the danger. If there are only two categories, corners and, the opposite of corners (straights) then the statement is completely unremarkable.
@@pinkyn0se a fair point. See my answer above. But from memory there were about 6 categories including car parks. Which had much bigger chunk than I’d have thought too

Road surface looks great compared to the UK. Thanks for the video.

Great informative video, as always😘
Bless you 🙂Cheers for watching and for the comment mate. Ride Free 🙂
By the way: Great views again!
there were some stunning vistas for sure, Klausen Pass best corners, Fleulla Pass best views i think :-)

Great video again brother... that countryside never gets old!
And good info for all riders... 👍🇦🇺
cheers mate, and no, it still takes my breath away 🙂 and i still notice bits i didnt see on the day lol
Even before watching this I dare to assume I am reasonably good at it since I tend to survive most corners. 😁
i know that will probably apply to most of the viewers, but its important to help newer riders, and we all forget things too :-) have a great weekend mate
@@barebonesmc Yep, the most important thing is to not feel indestructible. Have a nice weekend as well.

If half the motorcycle crashes are in corners , where are the half happening ??!!!
a fair point lol, i would guess junctions, pedestrian crossings, railway crossings and tram lines and outside schools qould all probably add up 🙂
