Valentine's TIP: If you haven't gotten her a gift yet, how easy would it be to simply tell her you're planning the most romantic weekend for the two of you later this year?

Pick a cute place to stay for a few nights. Make a reservation. Find the twistiest backroads route to get there that you can!

She'll love it, we promise.

Forget Cinderella’s pumpkin carriage. Your motorcycle is the ideal vehicle to carry you and your special someone to a romantic weekend getaway. For Pete’s sake, riding two-up practically forces one of you to wrap their arms around the other. We’ve written about romantic New York hotels before.

Small girls can ride big bikes, too!

When I started riding motorcycles, I remember thinking on the saddle of my little 250cc: “There’s no way I will ever be able to ride a big motorcycle.” After all, how could a 107-pound girl ride a 550-pound bike? A year later, I ride big adventure bikes almost exclusively.

Is Florida on your early season riding list?

Sebring is a city that sits about smack-dab in the middle of the Florida peninsula. Its location makes it a fantastic base from which to ride out for motorcycle adventures. Both the Atlantic and Gulf coastlines are within easy access along the legendary Cracker Trail that passes by Sebring. Even

There are some similarities between the causes of plane crashes and the reasons for motorcycle accidents: it’s often a combination of factors, or risks, that cause incidents in both cases.

There are some similarities between the causes of plane crashes and the reasons for motorcycle accidents: it’s often a combination of factors, or risks, that cause incidents in both cases. And in both, the fundamental cause can usually be traced back to “human error.” Just as in doing a

It's a good day to learn about motorcycle engine oil. 👇

Every motorcyclist knows an engine needs oil to function correctly. But not everyone is aware of the nearly bottomless rabbit hole that is the infamous “oil discussion.” Case in point, certain internet forums will delete all posts on this topic since the discussions often get so out of hand, qui...

Have you ever wondered what Earth will look like once 99.9% of humanity is gone? Motoring to Centralia, PA, will give you an ominous taste of the end of the world.

I can’t rightly call Centralia a ghost town because it has residents—a whopping five stubborn souls according to the latest census. In practice, however, the town is a demolished ruin that new-growth forest has begun to reclaim.

The main draw for riders is Athens’ proximity to Ohio’s Windy 9. This collection of exciting, looping motorcycle routes out of the city of Athens takes you into the surrounding Athens micropolitan area (that is, Athens County).

These roads are well worth getting on due to their sheer variety. You’ll find rolling hills, thick woods, peaceful farmland, and thrilling twisties, depending on which one you put your wheels on.

Athens is your gateway to a whole bunch of excellent riding roads. No, not the Greek capital—we’re talking about Athens, OH. This welcoming city sits on the Hocking River in southeastern Ohio, some 20 miles from the West Virginia border. Athens, named after the ancient Greek city, is

Godspeed, Malcolm Smith. A true motorcycling legend.

The news came as an unexpected surprise and with deeply-felt hurt. A fellow moto journalist posted a nice photo of Malcolm Smith. No statement, no words—but I knew what it meant. We, the motorcycle community, have lost one of our greatest heroes. Malcolm Smith passed away on November 26,

The Klim Krios Pro is one of the most popular ADV helmets, but how does it stack up? Read the review.

Venturing full-time into the off-road realms astride my KTM 500 EXC-F, it seemed only fitting to trade my street-oriented helmet for the Klim Krios Pro. After five years of long-distance riding and experimenting with various mid to top-tier brands, the call of the off-road experience led me to don t...
