To have more fun on your motorcycle all you need to do is work on improving your riding skills. That’s why we do our exclusive Rider Skills programs here on Adventure Rider Radio, to share ideas and concepts that can improve our riding skills.

On this episode we learn techniques for turning our motorcycles around when we’re stranded part way up a hill and the only way out of the predicament is down. Now, while this is not a hard core skill, learning the correct method of turning your bike around on a hill will help everywhere you ride and will also mitigate the fear associated with hills, be it a dirt path or a steep driveway.
