There is no doubt that practice improves our riding skills, but sometimes life gets in the way and then throw in weekend rides, how do you find time to set up practice sessions? On this episode of our exclusive RIDER SKILLS program we’re going to set you up with a number of slow speed practice exercises that you can do just about any time you have a few minutes. Perhaps when you’re waiting to meet up with someone or maybe you can scoot outside for a few minutes before dinner, the point is these are so easy to set up that you can do them almost anywhere and practising these skills will definitely make you a better rider.
