Can riding on a race track really make you a safer road rider? In this episode of Better Riding, powered by Honda Motorcycles UK, Michael Mann is joined once again by professional motorcycle coach Mark McVeigh to explore how track riding can improve real-world road riding skills.

Track days aren’t just for racers. In fact, they’re one of the safest environments to develop machine control, improve cornering confidence, understand tyre grip and learn how your motorcycle behaves at higher lean angles and under heavier braking.

Mark explains how track riding develops the Skill pillar of his riding system, helping riders build confidence and reduce panic reactions when things don’t go to plan on the road. The discussion covers:

✅ Why track riding improves road safety

✅ Vision, reference points and looking further ahead
✅ Cornering techniques and machine control
✅ Trail braking explained
✅ Body position and its effect on motorcycle handling
✅ How track riding improves rider mindset

Whether you’ve never considered a track day or you’re wondering how track skills transfer to road riding, this episode explains why spending time on track can make you a smoother, safer and more capable motorcyclist.
