Species-Matching Approaches for Optimal Holiday Gift Procurement Within the broader motorcycling ecosystem, distinct behavioural groupings can be identified with surprising regularity. While each individual demonstrates the natural variation found in any free-roaming population, certain clusters — or species analogues, for the purposes of this field study — manifest traits so stable across geography, climate, and […]
Discovering the Fun Zone I rode like a typical Canadian—too damn polite to my bike. I babied it, not realizing the machine between my legs actually liked to be ridden hard, with a little bit of attitude. Don’t get me wrong. I was riding well and my bike was performing as it should—just not as […]

A Close Call, a Hard Truth, and Why Skill Alone Isn’t Enough Or maybe the title should be Learn and Live, but I digress. From instructors and books alike, one of the habits drilled into me over the years is the shoulder check. In the UK, they call it a lifesaver—and with good reason. I […]
Musings for Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month What we’re taught to do—and what we actually do—don’t always match up. We forget. We get stubborn. (I’ve always done it this way, and nothing has ever happened.) We get lazy. Or we pick up some of the erroneous riding lore that is best ignored, even when it comes […]
Getting back to a life on two wheels Sorry folks, but if you live somewhere warm enough to ride year-round—where winter is just a word, not a season—you probably haven’t felt that mix of thrill and mild panic we northerners get when we throw a leg over the saddle for the first ride of the […]
How to Avoid Costly Salt Corrosion Today, it hit forty-eight degrees Fahrenheit (nine degrees Celsius), and the sky was cloudless, blue, and sunny.
