What is the easiest free way to put up a photo? Try this ( https://imgbb.com/ ). No need to register. It even generates the code to put in your posting for you and does thumbnails, small images and full fat ones. I'd suggest you remove any EXIF data from your pics before posting anywhere. FB etc. d...

Re: Motorcycle videos
Interesting. Didn't know it was an MSF thing. I don't remember seeing it in the book I read. I'll have to dig it out again. When particular trainee was on the point of giving up riding because of difficulty getting out of their 'home' side road onto a major road. This sorted it. Surely it was the sm...

Rather than start a long document, I'll add to this post. Thanks. Considered. My thoughts: I've stopped with some angle o...

Re: Driving with DSG
"Changes are mainly smooth, sometimes near imperceptible." That's it's real beauty. It really doesn't matter if it changes mid-corner as there's no loss in drive as the clutches switch. (It does people's head in on Honda motorcycles. Once you trust it, it's not an issue) Often any 'jerks' ...

Re: Motorcycle videos
I'm often asked what my everyday riding is like when I'm not observing or making videos. Well here's a refresher ride for myself on a mix of town, dual carriageway and country B roads. This is your chance to see the ride, warts and all, from the view of a mentor, and observe what my positioning and ...

Re: Unsigned speed limits
