7 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Started Riding Dual Sport and Adventure Motorcycles

When I think back to when I was a beginner dual sport and adventure motorcycle rider, I cringe at all the things I thought I knew but was totally wrong about. I had a lot of misconceptions about dual sport and adventure motorcycle riding that really hindered my progress, so if you're a beginner dual sport or adventure motorcycle rider, I want to pass on what I've learned to hopefully help you grow your off road motorcycling skills and confidence more quickly than I did. Here are the seven things I wish I knew before I started dual sport and adventure riding: 1. Street gear is fine to start (with exceptions). You don't need the finest, newest, or most expensive adventure motorcycle gear from Klim or Rev'it to get started riding motorcycles off road. If you're coming from street riding, most of your current motorcycle gear will work. 2. Beginner adventure motorcycle riders are afraid of things they shouldn't be afraid of. Your tires will not explode on the gravel. Going up steep hills on a dual sport motorcycle is totally doable. Dropping your off road motorcycle is perfectly normal. 3. Beginner dual sport motorcycle riders are not afraid of the things they SHOULD be afraid of, like lower-leg injuries. Wear good off road riding boots. 4. It's okay to not be a hardcore ADV rider. Most people aren't. 5. ADV and dual sport riding is a gateway to so many other cool activities like trail riding, motocamping, adv rallies, and even multi-day ADV camping trips on the BDRs. 6. RELAX. Don't get so fixated on the difficult terrain or challenges of riding off road that you forget to actually enjoy your surroundings. 7. I've met some of my BEST friends through the adv and dual sport communities.
