I've been riding longer than you've been alive and I can't manage half the things you do! So kudos to you - you're an inspiration!
Love Doodle's videos. I got my first street legal bike in 1987. My Dad bought it for my birthday for 400 dollars, Honda CB350.
This is basically the CBT (Compulsory Basic Training) here in the UK, and with that you can only ride a scooter or a 125cc Motorbike, Although you will do more of this going for the next level or full A licence. The licensing then gets a little complicated depending on your age so I won't confuse and bore you with the A1, A2 and A licence Mod 1 and Mod 2 information 😂
Fun fact: in Italy and some other EU countries the cone exercise you show at the beginning is done to pass the license test. The difference is the cones are at 13 feet distance and you have to do it much slower. Also the U turn is also 13 feet wide. You have to do it in more than 25 seconds, anything less and no license for you.
In some of the EU countries you also get to Lane Filter/Split.
It makes sense to learn slow weave to get your license when you will be slowing going in between cars.
In Amerika, it being car-centric and anti-smallVehicles (including motorcycles and scooters) they don't make us do the slow weave to get a license because when would we be legally using it on the road?
100% agree that if/when we get lane splitting nationally legal, (in about 50-150 years) that we should implement this training to get a license.
13 ft u-turns!? I’m guessing no one on class is on a Harley bagger 😅
@@DoodleOnAMotorcycleHarley baggers aren’t suitable for many roads in the UK.
@@DoodleOnAMotorcycle I think it's impossible on big baggers, best attempt I have seen were on honda shadow and rebel, even sport bikes barely make it. Every one does the test on naked or adventure bikes 😂
Yes, that weave is a part of the UK bike test which also includes a figure 8, U-turn and 30mph emergency stop and swerves.
I love that he stopped and waited at each step to make sure everyone got it before moving on! at my first permit MSF course I failed the test bc I just wasn't ready and it wasn't going at a comfortable pace for me. After practicing alone in a lot and with some help at my own pace, it has been so much more helpful. It's so great to see good leaders and teachers who are respectful and patient in their craft and want to see you succeed.
Hi Carolyn: Thanks for another great video. I’m 70 year old retired firefighter (retired 12 years ago) with chronic back pain. I’ve been practicing some of your (and motojitsu’s) drills. I was practicing U turns at the high school parking lot, trying to achieve the 16 foot U turn (2 parking spaces). I was good at 20-25 feet and when I attempted the 16 foot U turn, I dropped my 2012 BMW 1200RT, putting some nasty scratches on my side case. First thing I thought was “what would Doddle do!” I tried unsuccessfully to pick it up, when I nice lady with a huge barking dog came and helped me. I thanked her and she said to her dog “come on HARLEY let’s go! Guess I should get some crash guards? Thanks again for being YOU!
I cannot wait to sign up for Jerry's course. And on a side note, your videos are well loved and catching on. I only did my MSF for the first time 2 months ago. I mentioned you in the classroom portion. Just casually I was like, 'I was watching a motorcycle youtuber. Her channel is Doodle on...' and the teacher was like, 'oh, sure! I love watching Doodle...' and then 30% of the class was like, 'yea, that's a great channel...' Well done! I'm right outside of Charlotte and did my MSF in Upstate SC. The community really enjoys your videos! And the ones that didn't know, know now!
That's pretty awesome! I've been subscribed to Doodle's channel since April of 2018, I'm so glad to see that she is getting her recognition in the motorcycle community.
WTF? Welcome To Florida! You definitely came down during the rainy season. You looked great!
1) It’s not easy doing these exercises.
2) it’s harder to do them in the rain.
3) it can be done.
Great content Doodle! Keep up the great work.
You did great Doodle! You have definitely come a long way. Keep it up! Until next time 😼
Until next time NEMESIS! 🤪
@@DoodleOnAMotorcycle 😂
Awesome video! ✌🤙
Ruth roh raggy,Zilla in the house ..
Thanks for sharing this. I had finally listened to you and started practicing U turns in a parking lot and it has completely changed how well I ride. Thanks for all the motivation! I’m glad you point out the need for people to practice even after taking a class. Many safe miles to you and all who follow on bikes.
You inspire me to practice these moves. I'm terrible, but I know I can do it if I keep watching and practicing.
I have practiced after watching this and others. I'm now accused of "showing off" while busting full lock figure-eights while waiting for friends to fuel up. It feels kinda great~
@@got_to_roll LOL, very cool.
Love this Doodle! Happy to see Meg and Mike there too! ✌️
Bravo Doodle you are awesome great skills blessings
Content is outstanding as usual. Skills and tips are great. Jerry is the GOAT. Your 100 U-Turns a Day video is a goal.
This was really helpful to hear Jerry's (and your) feedback during the course. I took the local version to me of this same course and I did not do well at all. Did much worse than I thought I would. I didn't "click" with their feedback. What Jerry was doing here was very good and your video content as usual is awesome. Thanks!
I was impressed with Jerry and all the students! All striving for excellence!
Great stuff Doodle 😃 All that practice payed off. Sorry you didn't get the trophy, but I'm guessing it just motivates you even more 💪😎
yess!!
Great content Doodle!!!!! It just shows that practice makes perfect..... and you are one of Jerry's favorite students..... ;-) Sorry that you had to do all the riding/practice in 100% of the 70% of the predicted rain. Thanks again Doodle!!! Be safe and Blessed!!!!
The pouty look on your face when you had to pose beside Joe Go with his trophy was priceless! I don't follow Joe (not enough time in a day), but Doodle is on my Subscribed list! Very well done!
Thanks Doodle! You’re an inspiration to both the wife and I. My wife fell in love with a RoadGlide Limited at the end of riding season last year. I think your videos have inspired her and she is a much more capable rider because of them. We would both love to participate in Jerry’s class someday. We both do spend time at a near by parking lot quite frequently. Thanks.
I've been driving cars for 12 years and just now started working on getting my motorcycle license. It's so weird being more comfortable at like 50-100 km/h rather than 1-10 km/h... first few lessons i had with my instructor i was sweating bullets and holding on for dear life going around the cones, but actually relaxing at high speeds.😂
I hope that someday i can work up the courage and be half as brave as you!
Keep posting videos, because you're really inspiring me to learn more and try even though i might be scared!
Watching this motor training brought back great memories of my own motor training when I was working. One of the best assignments I ever worked. Keep up the great content and stay safe!
Thank you for your time serving our communities 💙🤍🖤
I love these full training videos. I've been practicing my u-turns and slow maneuvers thanks to you. I'm only a year in with my first bike, and I'm loving it. Thanks for the encouragement.
I am learning vicariously thru you. tx
It is great watching others learn things us old guys take for granted. In the 70s most every kid had an Enduro bike. These bikes were anywhere from 75 to 350cc. We had gravel pits and many trails to learn in. After thrashing our bikes in the pits we then rode the bike home ,to school, or to do paper routes. It was a great time to be a teenager. Keep practicing and making videos.
You maneuver that very big bike so very well!! Absolutely wonderful job. Extremely impressive!!
Love the training videos because I get to see what not to do before I go out and do it. But above all it tells me I seriously need more practice in all weather conditions.
Fantastic. Thanks for sharing!
Keep up the good work!
The 1st vehicle I bought was a 1968 Kawasaki A7ss, it was a 350cc 2 stroke terror with me in control, I bought it for $250 in 1976.
I realized early on that I needed to develop skills on that bike if I was going to be safe while riding, I'm still riding and still practicing.
Love your videos and how they encourage folks to learn so much.
Awesome job looks like a lot of fun
Hey thank you for an awesome training session!!! I would love more please!! Thank you again
Great video thank you very well done. You go girl.
Great video! Thanks for taking your time to produce great shows!
Love Your Videos, this kind of training is what everybody needs, i’ve been at it a lifetime and still learning. would love to see ya motocamp, they make great videos. Keep the Rubber Down !! 👍👍
Great job Doodle
I love this content! I raced MX as a kid and did a bit of road riding as a young adult. Just picked it up again in my 50's so I love to learn.
Yes I love this kind of video showing training and skills
Thanks for the education
Awesome stuff, thanks for sharing!! I'd love to take one of his classes - goal for the future. 😊
Loved this one - especially all the tips along with the visual.
Excellent video. Very inspirational. Going to my MSF course next weekend. Looking forward to it!
Really liked this video….!!
Great job….👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You did awesome and look so comfortable on the bike and the course..good for you! and Congrats!
Fantastic video and I really enjoyed it and I think learned from it too. I vote yes to more of these kind of videos! Thank you!
You were so close from where I live!!!!! Awesome seeing you always looking to improve your skills.
Wow! 👏👏👏 Great Video! Jerry’s class looks like an excellent way to learn (& then put into practice) some much needed riding skills that I’m sure most riders haven’t mastered. That most certainly includes me… . Practice practice practice 👍👍👍. Great seeing all those folks stepping up to the plate in the rain 🤗😎.
love slow speed skills. Can do it really well in the parking lot but still have issues on the road.
I've really enjoyed watching your journey as a rider. Your skills are impressive and inspirational. I vow to set my cones out in the school parking lot again soon. Your terrific content and production just continue to get better. Thanks for your hard work Carolyn.
You did great, nice job Doodle👍🏻😊
Excellent video to share with our students in beautiful British Columbia, Canada. Much the same we teach/coach to our new traffic officers at VicPD as well as Washington State Patrol.Thanks so much folks..
Thanks for the great video.
Great job!
Doodles you nailed it girl - congratulations and stay safe 🤘😊...
Great video! And you have Jerry!!!!!
Oh, yeah, this is good stuff right here. 💪🏾
Thanks!
Wow, in the first three minutes alone you have jam packed so much valuable information. Im gonna get some cones for practice!
Great video Doodle as usual. This was helpful for me to see and here how it is done. Since I can not afford to cross the country to sign up for Jerry's class.
awsome job!
Super dopppe mate. The rain definitely been fun to ride in down here. Can't wait to see you and motojitsu colab again! 👏🐢
I like your Joe Rocket jacket. I got one a few years ago and I love it.
Awesome!
yes for more lessons!
Always anticipate what is coming
This is a great course and Jerry is good fun.
Great tutorial
As someone who is buying his first bike next spring I’ve been watching your videos and am looking forward to practicing on being a safe rider. I’m also looking for classes like these in my area. Thank you!
In all fairness, Joe is always preaching and doing course work! LOL!!
I didn’t choose the cone life, the cone life chose me 🏍️
🤣🤣
Hi Doodle, regarding the video about whet you like and don't by your Tiger, you can see your odometer on the top right corner, when you're on the "service" screen.
Great video, as always
Nice job! Happy Memorial Day weekend! Off to the Adirondacks for a week, and yes, R1250 GSA is going with me.
Yes, more. Impressive.
Looked like fun even in the rain
Hi great video loved the content. Am always looking to improve my skills. And this video and jerrys videos always help Thank you 🙏🇺🇸🇬🇧
A lot of courses are a waste of money conducted by ego driven instructors who talk too much and so confuse the student. This course was nothing like that. The group participants appeared to be a good crowd as well. I have been riding 41 years and still found this interesting and informative. Doing it in the rain in a controlled situation also increases your confidence for when you are caught out in it. I would like to have tried that course on my Triumph Rocket III. Outstanding video as usual.
That just look like a lot of fun while learning a few tricks by a master instructor. Win win all around
Almost dropped my bike this morning trying to maneuver a tight space and I thought of you. Definitely need to practice my low speed skills
SUCH AS GREAT VIDEO!!!!!!
This is awesome,,,,my best video to watch over and over. Satisfying!!!
Where's this training place and how much will be the course .
YES This is a fantastic video Need moor of them. Roger Jr Lawrenceburg, Tn
The original motorcycle operator skills standard bearer, "Motorman O.G." Periodt.
Yes, this was a fun video and I would like to see more. Of course, I say that about all your videos..
Hi Doddle a great little video. Your slow riding skills have really developed. Now for a challenge, come and apply them by visiting the UK and ride some of our beautiful narrow country roads. They are full of twist and turns, and many of the roads are no wider than a car....😊
Hoping for the best is actually not that bad. You just have to prepare for the worst and act accordingly
Nice!!
Soooo Impressive @doodle !!!! 👌👌😊😊
All good practice this! And I think its fun.
After out main test here in the Uk there are advanced lessons etc.
Maybe one day but am just about to learn how to ride in dirt etc. My touring am a country lane chugger😂
Turn your eyes and head the direction you want to go,never ha6 a problem 😊.
CZcams says this video was three hours ago. Girl! You get around a lot awesome.
filmed back in February!
A lot of people i know tend to underestimate motor cops. They arent on the fastest bikes out there but that doesnt matter if they have more skill, and can out ride you.
I need to get into practicing even though i dont like it
Ok, When is Jerry going to get his butt out of Florida and take his show on the road. Preferably come out during Street Vibrations Motorcycle Rally in Reno, Nevada and provide a riding clinic. Maybe even have a booth.
Great job! But why do you give yourself so little space while doing the snowman? You start your turns so tight that you easily have another meter of space before hitting the cones. Going a little wider would make for an easier turn/circle, which could be a bit more forgiving in case you make any mistakes, but also would give you more space on the road and in your head to properly assess the situation. For me this helped to relax a bit more, relaxing my body, making the turns a lot smoother.
Practicing slow ride and U-turns is something I need to do every spring. Motorcycling is seasonal thing here and those couple of months without riding, really make you lose the skill.
I would like to take that class in Florida buy it is a pretty long ride from Houston, Texas. I've done some practice turns without cones and sometimes I can get dizzy doing several circles in a row. I guess I will have to take Dramamine to keep from getting dizzy. Great video.
He's got other locations around US :D www.ridelikeapro.com/pages/other-training-locations
12:31 ha ha ha hilarious. Soooooo funny 💀 😂 🤣
100% relative humidity...
well in sweden we have derust every spring its like this course so riders get safe training
Taking another riding course next week! Goals is to teach eventually.
It is a Rainy Florida, just like here in INDONESIA, also raining, almost every day.
Retraining your brain to release the clutch (more throttle for an automatic) when the bike feels like it's falling is probably one of the most important skills. It's not even a skill, it needs to be immediate muscle memory. Once you do that, you no longer need to think about it, your body will just do it. Then every one of those exercises except emergency stops becomes so much easier because you are not concerned with dropping your bike. Also, most of these exercises should not involve your brake, even your rear brake at all. Slowing down makes them all harder.
