The book, Proficient Motorcycling, Third Edition: The Ultimate Guide to Riding Well is essential reading for all motorcyclists regardless of their years of experience. Author David L. Hough, a revered motorcycle author, columnist, and riding-safety consultant, lays out a clear course for all riders who want to sharpen their handling skills and improve their rides. In this third edition, each chapter has been updated and expanded to include information on getting started riding, general safety, a description of motorcycle gears and types of motorcycles along with equipment that can be added to the bike. Still in full color, this book still offers the sage advice from a riding master on what they need to do to be prepared for anything on the road, how to avoid accidents and how to handle the unexpected. There is an added section featuring exercises to do with the motorcycle to gain skill and confidence on the road and an appendix which features charts and graphs with updated information and statistics on riding motorcycles. The glossary and index have all been updated as well. Learn to ride safely with this ultimate motorcycling guide.
