How I Battled New Rider Anxiety

As a new rider anxiety and stress is completely normal, in this video I share my struggles with New rider anxiety as well as my personal anxiety. In hopes to help you battle it in the future as well as normalize it. Special thanks to @AdoboMoto on KZbin and many other motorcycle creators here on this platform that push positivity and helped me grow my riding skills.

I have a little over 50,000 miles seat time. Hard, vigorous miles. Still have anxiety before every ride. Every rider should. Its dangerous. We should maintain a healthy fear the same way a boat captain maintains a healthy fear of the violent seas.

[@MotoXiety]

Absolutely nothing wrong with a little fear it’s healthy! It’s how we choose to sometimes handle that fear that isn’t. Facing your fears and doing what you love despite anxiety is important

[@z9brigade]

Uh no? How do you still get anxiety

[@wlt3585]

Understanding that simply riding bike significantly increases your chances of injury and/or death, is pretty anxiety inducing.​ Experience unfortunately only mitigates that so much. Ari Henning for example got rear ended some years ago and hes an excellent rider. @z9brigade

For the new riders: Dont ride with doofus' who egg you on to be faster. Ride how you want. If they are mad at you for going slower than them, those arent the people you wanna ride with. They can go fast in straight line, but not much else.

[@MotoXiety]

Agreed! Ride safe! 😊

[@Reecem0122]

I get excitement anxiety before every ride, it keeps me alert, not taking risks. Just enjoy your ride, dont try to impress anyone

[@MotoXiety]

Agreed

[@csdirtracerS4]

This video is exactly what I needed to see to realize I'm not the only one! I get real bad anxiety as I'm putting on my gear and backing the bike out of the garage etc. But once I take off on it the anxiety just goes away and I'm happy as can be!

[@MotoXiety]

I’m glad this video helps(: ride safe!

[@alicevns]

This is happening to me at driving lessons. I cant pass my anxiety and im really thinking to quit, but i wish to take my license 😅

[@thecrowfliescrooked]

I've been riding since 1988. I guess I've been doing it so long I approach it like getting into my car and driving. That's not to say I'm not super cautious, after all look how long I've ridden without having an incident. I guess what I'm saying is nervous anxiety will dissipate after a while and you'll find that zen and flow state and embrace every ride...all the while still being cautious.

[@MotoXiety]

It definitely will dissipate after a while, mines gotten so much better over the years.Ride safe!

I thought i was the only one, thank you

[@MotoXiety]

You aren’t alone my friend ☺️❤️ ride safe!

[@miked1254]

Those 2 lanes and that beautiful countryside is why I ride, and I’m in no hurry to get anywhere or put myself in bad positions. I ride to forget about the stress, not induce more stress than life already dishes out. I think you can be vigilant, plan your ride, and avoid the sketchy without adding more anxiety. The saying is spot on. Ride your own ride, and more than anything, enjoy every minute of it, because nothing is guaranteed either on a bike or off of a bike, but stopping riding and staying inside to watch other people live life on TV is not what constitutes living an actual life yourself.

[@MotoXiety]

Absolutely agreed! I’m glad that I started riding because it’s changed my life for the better😊 thank you and ride safe ❤️

[@eyesdry]

Very new rider here, popped up on my feed having a bad day today full of doubt (a ton of trivial things have gone wrong piling up) and this video is really reassuring and has made my day much better, especially regarding comments from others about giving up on getting into riding. Thanks a ton and looking forward to more content!

[@OffGridMadMan]

I'm an experienced (old!) rider in the UK. I have PTSD which includes severe anxiety and also agoraphobia. I find that even though I'm still nervous of riding after many years, the only way I'm able to push out of my comfort zone is on my motorbike. Once I'm out i feel amazing. This channel has a very interesting angle on this subject and i like that. You've got a sub. Stay safe and i hope you can improve your mental health in everyday life too 👍👍👍🙌

[@commanderwill2]

Thank you for this video. It was very helpful. I really want to get into riding, but my gf has a lot of fears and worries, understandably. Most people hear the word motorcycle and immediately think that you're going to plow into the side of a car at 150 or vice versa. This video really helped me to realize that i just need to stick with it, and it'll be worth it

I am very anxious in my nature, and I love riding bikes, it go really good if I ride frequently. I just come from a riding break for 2 years and I was a bit anxious getting on the bike again, but I been out some tours riding and it is very little now, started very short tours at first. Now I back loving to be on the bike ❤

Im not an anxious person but being on a motorcycle for the first time reminds me of when i first started riding my car with no experience lol so im glad this feeling is mutual.

[@MotoXiety]

It definitely is mutual, it will get better with time and practice though! Ride safe!

[@grimey5.565]

It's actually a pretty common human trait. If you don't have it that's how you will end up dead. You learn to suppress it the more seat time that you have. Moto Jitsu is one of the best instructors on KZbin.

He’s a solid instructor and one of my favorite channels for sure!

[@macie9861]

you just gained a new subscriber :) it's nice to know there are other riders with anxiety also, everyone around me is telling me really negative things. I'm genuinely so sacred to ride because everyone is telling me how I'm going to die and nobody looks out for you on the road and what not ahahah

[@MotoXiety]

I’m sorry to hear that, it’s really unfortunate that most riders have that experience. You aren’t alone and there is a solid and supportive community of riders out here for you! ❤️

On average a rider will have upto 4 accidents unfortunately . I promised myself I would never leave my bike seat got 2 years before a nasty one myself 😭 it's real and poeple on there phones there's days !! But there are things you can do to minimise ur risks but unfortunately you can't take them all away. It's part of the buzz tbf it's daily challenge just to stay alive .

I am terrified, excited, nervous and like you, I do suffer from anxiety and self-doubt often. I'm lucky that my younger brother has ridden for years and it so excited that I'm wanting to start riding.

I’m getting into biking. Some channels I like are adobomoto, dandanthefireman(some of his videos can trigger anxiety because he does reviews of crashes), motojuitsu, and doodle. If Dan is too trigger then I highly recommend motojuistu

[@MotoXiety]

All solid channels!

[@theslowdeath]

I started riding this year... zero prior experience. I don't really have much anxiety and if I have my best working solution is "fuck it, I'm just gonna do it". With riding is totally different because whole process to prepare to ride is so long, my normal spontaneous "solution" doesn't work. You have to do this checklist of things, dress up, and every minute longer it takes my mind is "nah dude". I also decided to record my journey, because it gives me some goal and it's interesting to look at things from perspective of time. All my mistakes are making me cringe not gonna lie...

[@MotoXiety]

I cringe at everything I do but it’s definitely good to record your journey so you can see your progress and set goals!

[@maximoran9863]

I'm glad that my father was supportive when I was learning, even with his worries he encouraged me to get practice and enjoy it

[@marlenegutierrez1122]

Omg thank you I really appreciate your words

[@MotoXiety]

Of course!😌 I really hope this helps!

[@SquarewhiteTV]

I'm glad more people are talking about it - it's the reason a lot of folks end up giving up on motorcycles completely. One skipped opportunity to ride becomes two, becomes four, before you know it you've got a bike sitting for a year that hasn't been touched.

[@MotoXiety]

Agreed!

[@turlus0072]

Had the "Vid "in May '22 and it really messed me up. It created anxiety and depression I never had prior, but helped push me to do things I've always wanted to. That July I decided to start, August I completed the MSF course and September purchased my 1st bike('18 Duke 390, love that bike). The anxiety intensified with the thought of riding and I needed to learn to overcome it. Instead on focusing to "ride", I practiced emergency braking, swerving, u-turns, leaning, etc. in an empty parking lot as much as I could. When I finally took to the back-roads and highways, I felt more confident and prepared. Do I still get the feeling? Absolutely. But, I realize: the fear of never doing it, is greater than the fear of doing it. I'd rather do it with a bit of fear, than to never do it without knowing the joy of it. Ride safe. Ride defensive. Ride your own ride. And remember: those who will criticize and invoke the negative, probably have never enjoyed the joy and positive of it. Two Down. Love you

[@lilynorthover8378]

I want to say some positive stuff. I know people who have been riding for years and have never had an accident. I know people who have had falls, skids and been knocked off and who barely have a bruise. I have only personally known one person who was killed, by a car, and I know a lot of bikers. I have come off twice without injury. All the gear, all the time unless being too hot would affect your riding, then slow down. Yes there is risk but you are in control, not fortune, not statistics (some of which dont add up. Put out there to scare us?) ALWAYS wear a helmet at the very least and ALWAYS consider yourself invisible to other road users because you mostly are. Most of all enjoy yourself, as a biker, you are part of a special family. 😊👍

[@MotoXiety]

Absolutely! Ride safe 💖

[@whammo11224]

That happened to me with people I know. My response was, "have you ever ridden?, No, then shut the fuck up!" Or, I would say, "everyone that I know who died in a vehicle accident, the accident involved cars only!" It works, believe me! Safe riding sir!

Same to you, Ride safe!

[@Tennessee968]

Ive owned 3 motorcycles in the past. Its been about 20 years ago. I am taking a MSF course this weekend and im nervous about it. Its been years since ive been on a bike. Im just worried im gonna screw up and fail. It makes no sense. I know i wilk ride better alone than in front of a group of strangers.

[@MotoXiety]

Riding in front of strangers is always tough especially in a situation like the MSF where you wanna pass and do well. I promise every instructor there wants to see you succeed and will do everything they can to give you a good experience.

[@Joke89ful]

Just got my new Yamaha MT 07 brother this is perfect video for me , all people at home are acting like I am an kid who doesn't understand the danger of riding and that first you need to build the confidence and skill to become better. Also in last few months here in Croatia we had many riders die in crashes wich is not helping my case of becoming the motocycle rider. Luckly for me I am hard headed and believe in myself to see this throught.

[@jamie.miller.inspiring]

I find it hard to believe that anyone who gets their licence and first bike doesn't go thru that phase of wtf was i thinking getting a bike, especially due to the learning curve being so steep. Theres so many factors to riding from the coordination of using hands and feet for different tasts, essentially the opposite to a car, to the wind noise and feeling the wind, to balancing and getting comfortable leaning when it feels completely unnatural and you have to fight the urge to atand the bike up when you need to lean more than it feels like the bike can lean, funny enough once ur off the bike and look at the tyres you suddenly realise that you can lean probably double what you did. Riding is such a visoral experience where we engage so many senses simultaneously and then theres other factors like road conditions, weather, cars, people etc. Non riders always put off new riders because they are terrified of them because they dont understand them and heard some horror story, just remember thats someone elses story and not yours!

[@MotoXiety]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@jamie.miller.inspiring]

Dude i know exactly what your talking about. I dont struggle with anxiety though. But when i got my 1st bike a year ago. My 1st ever ride was with my pops. I was so pumped up to be riding with him. I had to pull over an settle down. Thankfully my pops recognized what was going on and just made us go back home. An try again another day. But i was so pumped up i started getting nauseated

[@MotoXiety]

I’m glad your pops recognized it and decided to head home with you to make sure everything was good 😊 ride safe!

[@RestlessMule]

Good content. I remember when I first started riding everyone told me how dangerous it is to ride a motorcycle and that I was going to die. The people that said that were all people that had never ridden. I did a few groups rides with friends, but I never cared for that because I didn’t ride as aggressively as most of the other riders. I think some degree of anxiety (with riding) is good because it keeps you aware of your limits. I think I had at least a touch of anxiety at the beginning of every ride for about the first three years I was riding. You’re spot on about anxiety going away with the more experience you gain. I’m at a point now that my only anxiety with riding is always worrying that I didn’t zip all my pockets and my tank bag. Lol You got a sub from me and I look forward to future content. I enjoyed your positive attitude.

[@BrosTheNugget]

I can definitely relate to the family members thing. I want to get into riding pretty bad, and have been eyeing a pretty cool bike that was just released and is said to be great for beginners, but if i brought that home i feel like my mom and grandma would disown me lol. Theyve both worked in the medical field, so theyve only ever seen the horror stories of motorcycling. My grandad had a motorcylce when he was younger, but gave it up after one time he was ran off the road and ended up driving through someones yard, almost wrecking (he was actually fine by the end of it). Another worry i have is that i know almost nothing about the best way to ride one safely. Ive watched a few videos that cover pretty basic things like watching cars at all ends of an intersection when entering, stopping at the back corner of the car in front of you so that you cant get sandwiched between the one behind you not paying attention and the one in front of you, etc. I do a few of the things the video talks about already, but in my current vehicle rather than a bike. Idk, it feels like everything is against me trying to get into the scene, even though id really like to. Thank you for the video, this earned you a sub lol

[@MotoXiety]

I really hope you get a bike, yes riding is dangerous but so are a lot of things. I really think the biggest thing that makes a difference is you as a person and how you choose to ride. Understanding your limits is 100% key to staying safer on the road. Thank you for the sub I hope to keep making solid content for you as you progress through your riding journey.

@MotoXiety I've been trying to decide whether I should save up for a ninja 500, I've seen tons of people say that it's really beginner friendly, and it's fairly affordable too. It seems to have just the right mix of ease of use and fun that I'd be able to drive it a lot. I agree with your statement on learning your limits, because you can't drive at all without knowing how you feel safe driving. I wish I knew some people irl that had bikes because I've got about a million questions about it all lol, but I guess the biggest one is how do I even get started? Thank you for replying when you did. I hope I can get into the scene too, it seems like genuinely a lot of fun!
