How to make winter riding fun?

I get it, it's cold; if you don't have to commute why would you want to go on your bike? The roads are rubbish, you have to ride so slow and careful. Hell most of my crew SORN their bikes over winter, especially the sportsbike riders.
But, winter riding can not only be fun! It can help you so much for when better weather comes.
In this video I cover a variety of things you can do at quiet industrial estate that is not only fun but it will also help your riding!

    Great vid! This will be me tomorrow on my wee 125 with my bf on his 700, it's been a couple of months since we've been out. Hopefully I'll be joining him this year when I pass my test 🤞

    Great video and advice. I'm still working my way to my big boy license, but fingers crossed this year it will happen. I still go back the video you did on nervous riders that's been a massive help to me.

    Glad it's helping Dave. When I had my CBT and 125 to get out I would ride to industrial estate, practise what you would do on a MOD1 and then ride home a different way each time to build up road skills. Trust me though, big bikes are so much easier (strange as it sounds), takes a good 2-3 months learning curve to get over the power and fear of that but once you do it is so much easier with regards to getting away from cars.

    @Peter Kenworthy thank you Peter, I had a big confidence issue last year and it stopped me from progressing to take my tests. This year I'm determined to get through it and enjoy it

    @@davestatham8668 listen Dave , because I was so nervous I contacted Dom and he made a video Fiorela me on his channel . He was very supportive. This time last year I stated my DAS , only had a few months experience after my CBT in sept . It was a disaster. Two days in I put the DAS on hold for another few months . Eventually passed MOD 1and 2 first time …… but I did cancel my MOD 1 twice due to massive nerves . When 2 came I was terrible , even vomiting ,,,, And now, I smile as I take my new 650 fir a ride with all the gear and my friends . Not bad for an old man of 58 . Best of luck buddy

    Going to try this next week. I too have a great IE to practice on . Unfortunately one of the roads is AUDI/ BMW stupidity lane. The car parks are great . Will take my cones and get the skills practiced . Don’t like the glare on the Rd at this time of year, it’s very dangerous.
