Summary
Motorcycle riders often spend considerable time learning and perfecting their riding skills. Our popular segment on the show, Rider Skills, discusses various techniques and the importance of learning them and practicing them in real-world conditions. However, what's sometimes missing is the next step—real-world exposure. Ben Dragoo has developed a curriculum specifically designed to help train riders preparing to compete in adventure motorcycle challenges like the GS Trophy. This episode explores how this training could potentially enhance riding skills.
