Developing Advanced
Riding Skills
Once you have mastered basic riding
skills, you can begin developing more
advanced skills. First, learn the ”Street
Strategies” covered in the next sec-
tion. Then you can take the vehicle
on the road in relatively low-risk situa-
tions.
Start by riding in less challenging situa-
tions:
– Short distances
– Good weather
– Low traffic
– Daytime
– Lower speeds
– No passenger.
You can gradually move on to more
challenging riding situations as you de-
velop your skills.
