Personal Note:

As I mentioned last time, I went to see the movie "Wild Hogs." I'll let you know more about what I thought of the movie in an article soon. My two sentence review:

If you liked City Slickers, you will probably like Wild Hogs. While many of their riding techniques were questionable, the movie was still funny. View the movie trailer here. (click on Video tab).

Motorcycle Riding Tip --
Ride Frequently to Improve Your Riding Skills


Frequent short rides are better than infrequent long rides.

My motorcycle mentor once told me, "Given a fixed amount of riding time, it's more beneficial to ride frequently for shorter durations, than it is to ride sporadically for a long duration."

My personal experience indicates that he's right.

In other words, given the following scenario, which rider would advance more quickly?

Rider A: Rides four times per week, for 30 minutes each ride.

Rider B: Rides one time each month for eight hours.

Motorcycle instructors will tell you, Rider A would advance more quickly.

Still not convinced?

Ask a great piano teacher whether it's better to practice once a week for one hour, or four times a week for 15 minutes. Nine out of ten will choose the latter.

When time is short - "frequent" short rides are the better than "infrequent" long rides.

Keep Practicing!
