    Jerry Palladino, I absolutely love how you explain the details of learning how to ride a motorcycle and bringing your wife into it helps as well. I have told so many women to go watch your videos and buy your videos so they can feel comfortable on a motorcycle. You taught me how to do a u-turn and I'm almost better riding a motorcycle than my husband because of you. I'm really good with the friction Zone, but by you saying look where you want to go and turn your head there actually saved my life from not hitting the front of a semi. I'm actually giggling to myself when I see duck walkers. I'll be 64 in July 2021 and I'm more afraid of other drivers now than ever before, but there's nothing better than riding a motorcycle sometimes.

    I'm a pretty avid rider and I will say that I still go back to watch these kinds of videos. You can always re-learn something, or learn something new. Never get complacent when you ride a bike. You don't have the opportunities to make the same life saving moves as you do in a car. Its always smart to go back and re-watch even the most basic stuff like this. Who knows, it could save your life.

I started watching more now that I have a really big bike, and I want to be as good a rider as possible. I'm not a new rider, but the machine I just got is my biggest yet. Really, these officers are very skilled and confident, and I appreciate the videos.

    I have performed the U-turn in two methods you have taught before. Depending on where I am in that left turn lane, if I am first to go, I use the method you showed in this video, and if I am a car or two back, I use the dip before going into the turn. I find both to be very helpful while riding.

    Hi Jerry, and there was a man on telling that if you have a real heavy bike you just lean forward on it and when you pop back up it goes back. Well he must've not really had a real heavy bike because a real heavy bike doesn't necessarily back up when you push down on the front.awm
