  1. MMP 34: Motorcycle Dream Ride Book Is Live!

    MMP 34: Motorcycle Dream Ride Book Is Live!

    In today’s session, I share something big in my life. In 2015, Mike and I ventured to do something we weren’t sure was possible.  We rode our motorcycles from Alabama to Alaska and back. I was so moved by the experience that I wrote a book about it—and I just released it for sale on Amazon. Motorcycle Dream Ride does more than document our ride, and it’s not just for riders. It unpacks what really happened along the way—and how the people we met changed us. For a limited time, I’m making the paperback version available at a discounted price. If you have Kindle Unlimited, I’m making the Kindle version available for free. Here’s a link for the book: https://www.motorcyclesmarts.com/book2launch I’ll unpack the book in more detail later, but I wanted you to know about the introductory price.  And thanks to all the beta readers who helped me do a final edit on the book. I used some of your feedback in the “Reader Reviews” section in the front of the book. I’m humbled. Motorcycle Dream Ride is the second book in the Motorcycle Smarts Book Series. —David motoryclesmarts.com motorcyclementor.com

    MMP 33: Hands-On Training and How to Treat a Rider Coach

    In 2005, my riding buddy Mike and I took our first hands-on motorcycle training class in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.  If I had it to do over again, I would have asked better questions. In today’s session, I talk about how rider coaches are worth their weight in gold. I also discuss good questions to ask and bad questions to ask.

    MMP 32: I Wanted You to Know First

    Back in 2017, I took my family out to a fancy restaurant (along with my son’s best friend, Will) and announced the big news: “I’m writing my first book about motorcycles, and I’m almost finished.” That was nearly five years ago. Completing Motorcycle Smarts has been such a thing in my life that my family has stopped asking me when I’m going to publish the book. After all, I told them I was almost finished five years ago. Anyway, onto the breaking news! I’m thrilled to announce that my first book Motorcycle Smarts: Overcome Fear, Learn Control, Master Riding Well is now available on Amazon in paperback and Kindle versions. I can’t believe it. It’s a dream come true! You can find it here: motorcyclesmarts.com/books Many of you downloaded Motorcycle Smarts when I gave away the PDF version months back. Thank you for your comments and feedback. I incorporated them into the book, and I think it’s even better. And, for a limited time, I’m offering the book at a huge discount. I want to do that to say thank you for your support and encouragement. With gratitude, —David motoryclesmarts.com motorcyclementor.com

  4. MMP 31: Lowside and Highside Crash Awareness Month: Session Four

    2021. 05. 27.

    MMP 31: Lowside and Highside Crash Awareness Month: Session Four

    I’m proclaiming the entire month of May as “Motorcycle Lowside and Highside Crash Awareness Month.”  For the entire month of May, I’m diving into lowside and highside crashes and answering these questions: What are they? Why is it important to understand them? What triggers them? What can we do to avoid them? Understanding lowside and highside crashes is one of the most important things you can do to change your chances of crashing. Yet, I believe it’s the MOST glossed-over topic in motorcycling—probably because it’s hard to explain in simple language.  I cover all this (and more) in my book Motorcycle Smarts. This material is so important that I’ve decided to give the book away through the month of May at this link: motorcyclesmarts.com/gift If you’re listening to this after the book has been released for sale (and you don’t want to buy it), I have pulled out this section of the book as an excerpt and offer it to you as a free download here: motorcyclesmarts.com/nocrash Download the book material and follow along as I step you through the illustrations in the book. Understanding lowside and highside crashes, what triggers them, and how you can avoid them WILL reduce your chances of crashing. Anyone who tells you differently is a liar. In this final session, I explain two pieces of electronics that can significantly reduce your chances of triggering a lowside or highside crash. —David MotorcycleMentor.com facebook.com/themotorcyclementor

    MMP 29: Lowside and Highside Crash Awareness Month: Session Two

    I’m proclaiming the entire month of May as “Motorcycle Lowside and Highside Crash Awareness Month.” So far, nobody has told me I can’t do that.  For the entire month of May, I’m diving into lowside and highside crashes and answering these questions: What are they? Why is it important to understand them? What triggers them? What can we do to avoid them? Understanding lowside and highside crashes is one of the most important things you can do to change your chances of crashing.

    MMP 28: Lowside and Highside Crash Awareness Month: Session One

    I’m proclaiming the entire month of May as “Motorcycle Lowside and Highside Crash Awareness Month.” I’m not sure I have that kind of authority, but I’m doing it anyway. For the entire month of May, over the next four episodes, I’m going to be diving into lowside and highside crashes. I’ll be answering questions like: What are they? Why is it important to understand them? What triggers them? What can we do to avoid them? Understanding lowside and highside crashes is one of the most important things you can do to change your chances of crashing. Yet, I believe it’s the MOST glossed-over topic in motorcycling—probably because it’s hard to explain in simple language.  I cover all this (and more) in my book Motorcycle Smarts.

I hope you will follow along for all four sessions. P.S. I’ve just reestablished The Motorcycle Mentor Facebook page!

    MMP 27: Losing My Sister and Urgency

    This episode is about more than motorcycles. It’s about losing my sister—and friend. If that feels uncomfortable, it’s perfectly fine to skip to the next episode. It’s also about the urgency I feel to help riders NOW! Accordingly, I’m claiming May as:  Motorcycle Lowside and Highside Crash Awareness Month For the entire month of May (starting next week), I’ll be going over Chapters 20 - 29 (and more) in my new book, Motorcycle Smarts: Overcome Fear, Learn Control, Master Riding Well. This is the material that other motorcycle books gloss over. It’s also one of the most important topics on motorcycling.  What are lowside and highside crashes? What triggers them? How can riders avoid them? You can download my new book, Motorcycle Smarts, for free for a little while longer before it goes on sale at this link: motorcyclesmarts.com/gift You don’t want to miss this. —David MotorcycleMentor.com
