I’m about 3 years into my street riding career with my trusty Himalayan 411 (2021). It primarily serves as my commuter with a few long trips to take rider training. It’s in the pieces now that I’m giving myself the goal of doing as much possible maintenance. I just took the wheels, brake pads, and chain off for the 1st time (so much dirt & gunk by the front sprocket). I’m on the hunt for new tires to try installing myself. Wish me luck!

I’m from Puerto Rico but I live in AZ I’m a new rider and my bike is a 2018 Husqvarna 450 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

My name is Agnieszka, but you can call me Aga (Gaga with no "G") 😁 Me and my husband started our motorcycle journey in autumn of 2023. In Poland, you have to pass a theory an a quite hard practice test to get a driving licence 🥲 Fortunately, we did it. 💪🏻 When I was a teenager I used to ride as a backpack with my friends. Since then I wanted to ride myself one day. I wasted 8 years thinking that I am to weak to practice on the exam motorcycle (Yamaha MT07)... And I couldn't be more wrong 😊 Thanks to my husband, I tried and I did it. I see a lot of women thinking the same and not trying - do not make my mistake, just try and make your dream come true! 🎉 We joined the "Motoholics" motorcycle group which - one of the few - respect riding culture and regulations... Now I am one of the leaders of the group, organizing and leading one-day rides with my husband. This opportunity taught me a lot, gave me priceless experience and a lot of new moto-friends ❤️ I am so thankful to be able to ride with my sincere one and share this awesome passion together. 🥰 You can find me on Instagram as "@moto.gaga". Have a good day and a great ride! 🏍️

Hello! Chris here from Omaha, NE. I started riding about 5 months ago (Used 2023 Royal Enfield INT650) and knew I would enjoy it (been a car guy for a long time, and I've had my motorcycle endorsement for 10+ years), but I didn't realize HOW MUCH I would enjoy it. Not just the riding itself, either; but everything that comes along with it. Customizing the bike, becoming more skilled at different kinds of riding (slow speed, twisties, night time, highway, group riding, off-road, etc.), self-maintaining the bike, learning about safety gear, the travel and exploring aspect, geographical knowledge of my area, building my own routes in a mapping app, etc. There's so much more to it than people realize! Starting out, I knew I would be safety-minded about riding, so I got a known beginner friendly bike, geared up head to toe, and ended up watching DDFM and picking up the SMART rider book with the cones for practice before I made my way out of the neighborhood roads and a church parking lot onto the public city roads and eventually highways. It's been a great ride so far, and I'm sure it'll continue to be!
