 proficient motorcycling August 11, 2008
as predicted by its reputation, a very good, thorough, and practical read. anyone can ride in a straight line. this book gives good advice about hazards, mindset, handling curves, and slow speed control, and more. very good, well worth it, good reference to revisit from time to time.
Great book July 28, 2008
This is a well written book. David Hough explains all about the dynamics of a motorcycle, how it works, and so on. I like his prose, he keeps it from getting dry and boring. I read the whole book right before we went on a 3 day motorcycle trip. I have only been riding for 3 months and the book gave me good advice, made me more aware of what can happen, when, and why. Recommend every novice rider and even experienced returning riders read this book. You won't be disappointed.

 Back in the Saddle July 15, 2008
After 30 years, the bug hit me and I bought a new crusier. Checked many sites for the best books out there, this one came highly recommended. It is a good book to refresh the basics and give you some simple exercises you can do to get the feel of the bike back. I will give it to my son to read too. I haven't taken the riding class yet, may, but not sure. One thing I learned from riding, better safe than sorry, speed will kill and the car wins every time. Ride safe and live long.
Lots of Tips, Just a little Grim July 1, 2008
The book provides a lot of tips and useful information, a lot of it common sense and lot of it new knowledge, especially for a new rider. The only thing that holds it back from being a 5 star is the continuous lecturing on the dangers of motorcycling. The books starts off with the dangers with numbers and in almost every section, almost every paragraph it seems to continue the rant on the dangers. Its to the point that you just almost want to stop reading it because of the danger of a paper cut when you turn the page. But, in the end more knowledge about riding is better and this is a book that ties together information with stats, and reinforces good riding techniques.
