...kinda always felt that was the case.

Apparently it’s proven science:

I was just talking to a buddy today and saying can't wait for Spring and riding to start up again. It is -20C here today. I've always found riding to be a great stress relief and miss it in our winters here.

I feel bad for people that have never experienced the joy of riding motorcycles. Nothing better!

It's a great stress reliever until some cager pulls out in front of you and there's absolutely nothing you can do to prevent collision. (with the possible exception of riding 5-10 mph all the time or maybe constantly hitting an air horn) After my accident I was stressed out all the time, at least in the city. When I got out into the middle of nowhere it was great though. By the time it started to get better again winter kicked in. Hopefully spring 2019 will be better.
