Don’t Forget This When Planning a Trip
When planning a motorcycle adventure, it’s important not to forget essential items that could impact your trip. You’ll double-check your tools, riding, camping, and cooking gear, and ensure that any necessary maintenance has been done. However, there’s one crucial component that’s often overlooked—think of it as a safety net for when you’re on the road, something that will give you the ability to deal with unforeseen situations effectively.
To tell us more about this, we have Greg Turp, a lifelong motorcyclist with a career in healthcare, who is now training riders in effectively dealing with trauma and emergency situations.

RIDER SKILLS: Situational Awareness on the Road
Situational awareness while riding a motorcycle means being aware of your surroundings and predicting what might happen based on what you see. It's about paying attention to the road, other vehicles, weather, people and more. In this episode, Clinton Smout, Chief Riding Instructor at SMART Adventures, talks us through ways to read the scene around us as we ride and use that information to help predict what may happen next.

Customer Reviews
Always authentic
I have been privileged to own an ’adventure’ motorcycle for the last 10 years. For many of those years, I’ve been looking for advice and kindred spirits on Internet forums. And then I discovered Jim’s show.
Jim’s has interview style is authentic and considerate. He is one of those people I would like to meet one day and just spend some time with.
Over the years I’ve used this show to augment my riding training courses, and I’ve learned what works and what does not for other adventure riders. My favorite segments are the riding tips, although I also enjoy the gear talks.
I’ve started following many of his guests and have even managed to snag a signed book or two because of his show introducing me to authors.
I also listen to ARR RAW for other reasons. But if you got this far, maybe give it a try.
And you can, become a patron.
