Book excerpt: The definitive motorcycle riding manual. This book will teach you everything from the basics, right up to Advanced level, whether you're a new learner, a rider returning to motorcycling or just somebody who wants to improve their skills. Too many bikers are either killed or seriously injured through stupidity - their own or anotherperson's - so this book is aimed to help set that straight by explaining the Police rider's'System' in a way that's easy to understand. The book starts with the fundamentals of eachparticular aspect of riding, and then gently increases the explanations up to an Advanced Levelof riding. The aim of this book is to teach any rider how to make the roads safer for themselvesto use by looking at every aspect of motorcycling and gives guidance, tips and advice on howbest to manage everyday situations more safely. The life that this book might save could wellbe your own.Whilst there are many books / videos teaching you how to pass your motorcycle test, there'snothing that describes the life-saving skills that are contained within BikerCraft. Unfortunately,the current motorcycle test doesn't really impart all of the skills needed by a novice rider either.Skills that are proven to work by the most respected motorcycle riders in the world - the Britishpolice - and BikerCraft describes how the 'everyday rider' can utilise those same skills to vastlyimprove their own abilities, ride safer and increase their confidence. Learning to master amotorcycle is nothing like driving a car. BikerCraft has been independently verified by anAdvanced Police Examiner with over 34 years' worth of experience.BikerCraft is the culmination of 40 years riding experience, including 6 years as a motorcycleinstructor. I completed a Police Advanced Motorcycle Training Scheme at the age of 17 andgained my full motorcycle licence shortly after my 17th birthday. A year later, I qualified as anInstructor for Star Rider working in Wythenshawe, Manchester. After working for them for 3years, I became a Motorcycle Instructor for BSM (Manchester) for 3 years. During my time atBSM I completed annual Police Advanced Assessments.During the past 40 years I've ridden somewhere around 200,000 motorcycle miles across theUK and have toured across / through France, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Austria,Holland and Belgium frequently. Touring / camping was usually done 2-up with a fortnight's-worthof kit loaded on the bike and I can tell you that BikerCraft works everywhere !

Download or read book The Perfect Vehicle What It Is About Motorcycles written by Melissa Holbrook Pierson and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2011-01-12 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book, a polished, winding meditation on the theory and fractiousness of motorcycles, celebrates both their eccentric history and the wary pleasures of touring."—The New Yorker In a book that is "a must for anyone who has loved a motorcycle" (Oliver Sacks), Melissa Pierson captures in vivid, writerly prose the mysterious attractions of motorcycling. She sifts through myth and hyperbole: misrepresentations about danger, about the type of people who ride and why they do so. The Perfect Vehicle is not a mere recitation of facts, nor is it a polemic or apologia. Its vivid historical accounts-the beginnings of the machine, the often hidden tradition of women who ride, the tale of the defiant ones who taunt death on the racetrack-are intertwined with Pierson's own story, which, in itself, shows that although you may think you know what kind of person rides a motorcycle, you probably don't.
Download or read book Motorcycle Craft Book written by Trent Zemel and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-25 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A short but very useful book that nicely brings out, or better still reminds you of, many of the requirements for a truly advanced ride. Probably not useful for anyone who has yet to take advanced training - a lot of it would not make sense - but a great refresher for those who are at test standard or very close to. There are many excellent books on the theory and practice of advanced motorcycling, including the police rider's handbook Motorcycle Roadcraft. These handbooks are not sufficient on their own of course, to train a rider to the highest standards because it is necessary to observe a pupil rider during an intensive period on the road. To do this, the police have evolved a system of observation and training that is second to none. The skills of commentary have been passed down from instructor to instructor in the police force for decades but they have never been set down on paper. This book is an attempt to capture some vital elements of the processes and skills needed, based upon the assumption that the instructor is following the pupil on a one-to-one basis on a motorcycle, and that the instructor can communicate with the pupil by means of a bike-to-bike intercom.
