 Must... and easy ... read literature for the motorcyclist Mar 07, 2010
Based upon my advice from folks at work and on the Web, this was the first book I bought after taking the MSF course. I have found that it is not only an excellent source of information, but the author's style in presenting both the technical details and key components of riding psychology is incredibly easy to read and comprehend. I have the book lying by my favorite chair in my living room, and grab it 3 or 4 times a week just for enjoyment.
Having read Proficient Motorcycling 3 times cover-to-cover, I still find something worth considering every time I open the pages.
Highly recommended for beginning (and experienced) motorcyclists!
"The Bible" Feb 20, 2010
Last year (2009) David was (well-deservedly) inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame. He's been studying, observing and analyzing motorcyle skills and safety for many years. I've heard him speak at countless rallies and read his books. When two of my adult children decided they wanted to become riders, my first act was to provide them with a copy of Proficient Motorcycling.

This is a fantastic book. A must read for all motorcyclists. I should have read it years ago! It's a fun read as well which is hard to sometimes get when your reading about technical things.
 A lot to think about Feb 10, 2010
I have been riding for over 30 years, so it seems most of the information in this book is just second nature for me, and I suspect for a lot of other experienced riders too. For the beginner, it seems that this is a LOT to think about while riding and could very well be overwhelming. Bottom line is that there is no substitute for experience, and no book is going to give that to you. You just need to ride, and ride a lot. That said, this is still a great book, and I learned a lot of technical stuff as to why a motorcycle behaves like it does. It also emphasizes the inherant dangers of riding, if that weren't already obvious to any one starting out. Overall, I would say the title is appropriate and this book is very much worth your time and money. An especially good read during the winter while it is too cold to get out there and ride!
Guide to riding motorcycles safely Jan 29, 2010
This is an excellent, helpful and entertaining book. Even if you have thousands of miles under your belt, you will learn things that you will think of the next time you ride.
It is not intended to be scary, but many things are talked about that need your undivided attention and much practice. As the book says, "you react in an emergency the way you were trained".
This is a great book for all levels of riders and an enjoyable read.
