Big Question
I just got back from a short lil ride 120 miles
and as always when just starting out I got what I call the feeling
wind in your face smile on your face felling like I'm on top of the world (MAYBE I AM ) heart beating faster troubles gone.
(IF only till the ride is over)I see things I never see in a cage and smell things to some good some bad fresh cut of hay dead skunk
had few drops of rain jut to let us know were lucky on a back road going slow wave at a train blows his horn three long blasts (try that in a cage)
After 39 years of riding. I cant really say all the reasons why and some of them would not make sense to any one that doesn't ride
but I know for me I never want to go with out riding and the way it makes me feel So Tell me why do you ride?
To get out of the house.
To get some use out of it considering how much I'm paying for it to sit there.
Because my wife says "where are we going today?"
To get from point A to point B.
