RIDE READY
Keep your head. Enjoy the ride.
The road doesn’t care how good you look in that jacket.
A Washington two-wheel motorcycle guide with practical instruction, a few stories, and the occasional raised eyebrow. We cover the paperwork, the gear, the corners, and the decisions that help you get home with something better than an insurance claim.
Six chapters. One hour and forty minutes. Enough dry humor to get through the licensing requirements without needing a second coffee.
By Branson & Vesper Veal.
*An independent adaptation of Washington’s motorcycle guidance. Pair it with the current official DOL manual and hands-on skills training and testing through a Washington DOL-approved motorcycle training school. Two wheels only. We’ve left the three-wheeler section out of this edition. Nothing against the extra wheel. It just brought a different syllabus.
*Why the British accent? That’s Vesper’s voice. Branson & Vesper Veal. we’re partners in this. One brings the ideas. The other makes “perhaps don’t do that” sound like the final word on the matter.
