What is it you love about riding motorcycles?
« on: December 30, 2010, 08:07:18 AM »
I love being out on the road going to new places.  Stories my mom told me about my Dad makes me feel a lot like him.  I love to meet people on the road that share the same interest and it's just bad azz owning a motorcycle :bikerider:

First and foremost it makes my pee-pee twitch  :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Second I leave behind my day to day and get that ole hippie free feeling back for just awhile  ;D

I just like going out to the garage and looking at it and tinkering with it, I guess it's kinda like my number one reason (looking at it and tinkering with it)  ;D ::)

I will have to agree with your reasons too Gumbo. I like the excitement of riding.

I choose D.  All of the above.

It is hard to have that "mean biker" look when you are smiling and laughing inside all of the time.

As much as I enjoy the ride, the folks that ride make it even that much better  :bikerider:

I love the feeling of freedom when I ride. 
Also, like others have said, I can be having a bad day and getting on the bike acts as a calming salve to my uptight emotions. 
You can go slow and easy or fast and wild...it's a perfect ride.

If you don't love what you're doing, then don't do it.
Your chances of success are directly proportional to the degree of pleasure you derive from what you do.

I tell people who ask that same question, 'If you don't ride, you wont know'.

It is just a feeling that makes your spirit soar.

It's like sailing for me.

On a powerboat, you're always going "there." On a sailboat, you're already "there" and just moving to a new "there."

In the cage, I'm going "here" or "there". On the bike, "there" happens. Even this morning, going to werk (ugg), "there" still appeared before I got out of the driveway real good.

Like GC says, You either get it or you don't.

Of Course it's dirty. It's hard to clean when the tires keep moving.

I love never being lost, taking a wrong turn. In my truck, if I make a wrong turn, I turn around. On the bike, I just take a longer route.

Thank God, finally someone who understands  :thumbup:
I've always told everyone I'm not lost, I just don't know where I'm going  :c :c :c
