RIDER SKILLS – Maximum Braking: ABS On or Off Isn’t the Whole Story Sep 24, 2026

Show notes

Think about the last time riding your motorcycle when something surprised you on the road or trail and you had to get on the brakes—hard and fast. What did that feel like? Was it unnerving? Did the motorcycle suddenly feel like something you were fighting to control? It doesn’t necessarily have to feel that way. Maximum braking is a skill, but there are things to understand about your motorcycle before you even get to practising it. Clinton Smout from Smart Performance Centre takes us through what riders need to know to become more comfortable, confident and capable when they really need to stop.

Show notes

Adventure motorcycle training is everywhere today—but who worked out how these big motorcycles should be ridden off pavement, and how did those techniques become a formal curriculum?

Are We Engineering the Adventure Out of Motorcycle Travel Aug 13, 2026

Show notes

We spend a lot of time making motorcycle travel easier. More reliable bikes, GPS navigation, online bookings and help that may be only a message or a call away. Jacqui Furneaux has spent years travelling very differently. Her old Royal Enfield has broken down, she's relied on maps and strangers for directions, and she often leaves room for not knowing exactly what happens next. Some of the experiences she values most happened precisely because something didn't go according to plan. So as motorcycle travel becomes safer, easier and more predictable, what are we gaining — and what might we be insulating ourselves from? Are we engineering some of the adventure out of motorcycle travel?

RIDER SKILLS: How to Pack and Ride a Loaded Adventure Motorcycle Aug 06, 2026

Show notes

Loading an adventure motorcycle changes far more than its weight. It affects the bike’s balance, suspension, braking, maneuverability and traction—and can make familiar terrain feel completely different. Clinton Smout explains how to pack the bike properly, why weight placement matters, what changes once the motorcycle is loaded and what riders should consider before setting off.
