Breaking down the key skill sets to becoming a high level, skilled and safe bike (any type of bike) rider. Brilliantly demonstrated, brilliantly explained...as always.
This video is one of my many Champ School and other YT videos favorites. My weekly dose of traction control, lean angle and braking points training/practicing videos.
Treat yourself to Nicks video of “100 points of grip”. A video you’ll watch and skills you’ll practice over and over and over and over….OMG I’ve got Nickitis!! :)!! Thanks Nick for sharing your knowledge and experience!!
The late and great racer Dave Emde (“Twist of the Wrist” training era) sold me and trained me on my R1 with skills taught by the Godfather of Rider Training, Keith Code. With Keith’s list of “don’t do SR’s” in Dave’s hand (car driver SR’s-Survival Reactions that you need to unlearn on a bike, any bike). Today’s training methods are next level refinement of those “$10 of Attention Span” memorable and exciting skill development track days.
We live in a great time when every component on a motorcycle or for riding a motorcycle ( helmets, protective gear etc) is built for ultimate performance. But the big lesson often overlooked is all of this high performance motorcycles and gear is only as good as the amount practicing and mastering of what every high level component is capable of performing at.
Videos like this reinforce the importance of “know your equipment and master the basics” and you’ll become a master of riding. And, likely keep you right side up longer. Thanks again!
Nick ,I would like to thank you for all that you have done over the years your articles and videos have made me a much better rider and saved my hide more times than I care to recall . I tell everyone that rides to take your Champ U corse It is an absolute gift to motorcycling.
Good advice! I rode mountain bikes for years before I began riding a motorcycle. It was a very natural transition, because I was already used to being on 2 wheels.
Brilliant Awesomeness!! Teaching the grandkids this early on. Thank you!!
Fantastic, so simple to understand.
wow idk Champschool had a RUclips channel! this is pure GOLD!!! awesome!!!❤😊
Side note that helmet positioning…
😂🤦♂️
Great video Nick! And you’re right about watching for the elk.
Excellent video! Randy is a great student! 😃👍❤🏍
Love using the MTBs to demonstrate. BTW, only one finger on the brakes with MTB. I get you’re practicing the motorcycle two-finger grip, but just saying for MTB beginners. Use the extra finger to control the bar. One is plenty on modern MTB.
Wondering how the dent on the truck fender got there. Someone forgot the sidestand when parking beside the truck? (Ask me how I know).
Some schools teach the "get done with your braking before the corner" idea and then on their level 2 they introduce trail braking.
I think this is terribly wrong. Why create a habit that you have to brake afterwards?(given that someone will continue on their lv2)
Why do they do that you think?
I didn’t know that American bicycles have the brakes round the wrong way! In Britain our bikes are the same as motorcycles.
Those are some seriously vintage MTBs...
And fit that helmet properly!
I wear a motorcycle helmet cos otherwise it's impossible to keep your eyes open above a 30mph headwind!
"Like riding a bike." but the first step taken is modifying a bicycle as to make it act like something it is not?
Seems like that would help the few eccentric beginners, yet curse the many.
Just go ride your bike; is the overall message yah?
