Being in control of your motorcycle builds your confidence and more importantly also makes you a safer rider, especially when things go pear shaped. Off-road riding instructor, Jimmy Lewis, teaches us how to skid the rear wheel of our bikes for steering. In learning this advanced maneuver we also learn how to control our bike in a slide on the road, and once you’ve mastered doing it on purpose, you’ll know what to do when it happens by surprise. It’s also a fun and useful move for making quick no stop turns on to tight trails.
