FACE THE FACTS


So yes, while addiction consistently ruin lives and cause emotional suffering, we are passionate and obsessed people, wanting to enjoy frequent dopamine hits, and unable to live our best lives without motorcycles, but let’s face it the majority of us are all the better for it. As with many of you, riding motorcycles is a habit that no motorcyclist should intend on breaking, even because of OLD AGE.
Maybe rather than addicts, motorcyclists are just dreamers, leaning into the pursuit of worthwhile goals which inevitably involve some degree of risk. Perhaps we have a better grasp of our own mortality, of the brevity of life, and that in the end it’s the risks not taken which we’ll regret the most.
THE REC-CALL OF LIFE
“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, ‘Wow! What a ride!’”
