April showers may bring May flowers, but they also put a frown on a lot of rider’s faces.  For most, riding in the rain isn’t that enjoyable and some of you may just skip riding all together until the sun comes back out.  It’s been a long winter, though, and riding time can be a scarce commodity if the rain puts you out of commission.  But fear not, with the right gear, attitude and skills, riding in the rain can be just as enjoyable.

Doing track days on your bike can really test your skills and help you develop as a rider.  You get to push yourself and your bike to the limits.  You will also be pushing your gear to the limits.  That’s why it’s important to have outstanding motorcycle gear that you can trust.

If you have young kids and you ride, you know how awesome they think your bike is.  They beg and plead to go for a ride with you.  When done right, you can take your […]
