Off-road riding is one of motorcycling's most popular pursuits and also one of its best training grounds for improving street-riding skills. Off-road riding takes many forms, from motocross and enduro racing, to dual-sport day trips, to trail riding, to adventure tours. No matter the specific pursuit, all dirt riding (and much street riding) shares the same basic skill set. How to Ride Off-Road Motorcycles schools the reader in all the skills necessary to ride safely and quickly off-road. Chapters cover the basics, such as body position, turning, braking, and throttle control, then proceed to advanced techniques, such as sliding, jumps, wheelies, hill-climbing, and more. If you've ever wanted to try dirt riding or if you're an experienced rider looking to sharpen your skill set, How to Ride Off-Road Motorcycles is a perfect riding coach.

This gets a top rating for several reasons. First, it is built on solid, practical experience based on training thousands of riders to ride off-road or improve their off-road skills. Second, it is concise with easy to implement tricks and techniques that build skill and confidence. Third, it is as good for beginners as it is for super experienced experts. What ever dirt riding skills you want to develop, whether its doing wheelies, sliding, climbing hills or traversing whoops and sand, the author shows you precisely how to accomplish it - laying out the basic technique, showing some practice exercises and then how to evaluate how you're doing. This is just a great book!

I really needed this book

Bought my first motorcycle and have been riding for a year, practicing dual-sport techniques from a DVD loaded on my iPhone. What I didn’t know when I bought this “paper back” book is that it is actually a high-quality glossy paper back with really good photos illustrating the techniques being described. Concise illustrations broken into steps stand out and are easy to find and read. Now I’ve got a lot more drills and techniques to practice and I take this book out with me on rides. I highly recommend this book to those seeking to improve their off road motorcycle riding skills. I also took a riding class at MotoVentures in Anza with Gary LaPlante and really enjoyed and got a lot out of it. Thanks Gary! Riding is so much fun…

Helped me remember what I'd forgotten about dirt riding. I bought for purpose of brushing up on dirt for Adventure riding and it helped me greatly with sand on a heavy bike, riding ruts and riding standing up.
