Here are several psychology-based, peer-reviewed, study-backed excuses to get out and ride a motorcycle! You're welcome ;)
There are so many reasons to love motorcycling, but it still has so many stigmas... mainly perpetrated by Hollywood and shock media. So I thought I'd spend a month researching all of the real, clinically based psychological benefits of riding a motorcycle. Turns out... it was easier than I thought! Riding a motorcycle has SO MANY psychological and physical benefits! And yes, many of these benefits are inherent in many other physical activities (many of the studies were based on optic flow, which can be had by simply walking!) but off-road-motorcycling in particular has ALL of the benefits combined.
So... Want some moto therapy? Join me on a rally here in southwest Utah! Every gorgeous shot you saw in this video was taken over just the last two and a half rallies! (I said two in the video, but I added some more footage after the voiceover was done because the last rally was such a blast!) everideADV.com...
Much love and many happy (and guilt free) rides! Also... this might be a good video to share with a loved one who is skeptical about motorcycles. Also, going on a ride to "cool off" after a difficult event really is a proven method to handle stress better! So when we've had a rough day at work, or an argument, or just need a bit of time to re-center, a motorcycle ride and that all-important optic flow is a great way to recover!

I was really struggling with some traumatic events that happened in my family. Also a girl that shattered my heart. So, I took a solo motorcycle adventure across America from CT to WA then back to CT. 7386 miles round trip. 3/4 of the way to WA, I met a guy also traveling across the country on a bike from the east coast at a stop light! The guy and I rode together for 4 days and became instant friends. My head has never been more clear after that trip. Things don’t bother me like they used to. People have noticed a difference in how I carry myself after that adventure across the country. I thank God for motorcycles.

Riding resets my brain, instantly putting me in my best mood up to 48 hours afterwards. Also, it’s the only time in my life that while I’m riding. It’s the only thing I’m thinking about. Nothing else captures my full attention like that.

When I'm out road riding, and nearly home, I see my street coming up and I ride right past it. When I finally do make it back home, stop the engine & remove my helmet, this nagging feeling of 'back to reality' smacks me up the side of my head. Sometimes, I'll get right back on & go for another big circle through the neighboring towns.

I went through a tough breakup in early June and knew I had to get out into the world on my bike. Loaded up my dads r1200gs and went on my first long trip and road everyday for nearly 3 weeks. Put nearly 3000 miles on the road and had some much time to think and reflect and appreciate the world around me. I swear you cannot pay for a drug or a therapist to give you that feeling. Nothing and I mean nothing beats the feeling of being out on 2 wheels, alone or with friends. So greatful to have an outlet like motorcycles and mountain bikes.

I'm 28 years old, and never in my life have I rode anything 2 wheeled that wasn't a bicycle. I ended up building a 2-stroke motorized bicycle a few months ago, more out of practicality than anything, but after that first ride I always come back home with a smile on my face. The satisfaction of being able to put together something with your own hands and be able to ride and enjoy it near to the same effect as a full on motorcycle, I've never felt anything like it, and it fills a hole that's been missing for a long time.

Your video hits home for sure. I find that my time in the seat just makes my day, resets the stress and helps me stay relaxed about the issue I am tackling. I tip my hat to all you riders who can still do the hard enduro stuff. It's definitely a physical and mental skill, and now we know, a psychological boon too.

The science behind why motorcycle riding is such great therapy! Fascinating! Of course, we've all know the results, if not necessarily the specific methods. Hell, just commuting to work on my bike helps me get my brain on point and ready for a productive day, while my ride home helps me get past negative experiences during the day and arrive home happy and mentally healthy. Man, I'd love to do some group trail rides like this, it looks absolutely amazing. Sadly, that's very hard to come by here.

Epileptic seizures. I kept riding, got one on the bike. Woke up and pushed the bike home. Cried. That was the end it seemed. I ended up with up to 7 seizures per day. I was a passable powerlifter. I could deadlift 640 pounds but only 300lbs were enough to induce a seizure at that time. I fought to get other medication, worked on my breathing and suddenly the seizures were gone. I went to a workout to see if they really were and they were. So in order to ride again I had to wait one year, so states the law. My mother got cancer and died on new years eve in the same year. I started my bike and went riding. A few months later a car took me down on the bike, just 2 days after I was legally allowed to ride again. I spent some time in hospital, but I got back on the bike asap. It is helping. I tackled a hard enduro event and overturned my old dr750big downhill. It was a bloody mess and very exhausting. But I got no seizure there. Almost cried there because I was free. Sometimes I can feel it knocking but I need riding to stay sane. I saw people who thought about suicide due to epilepsy taking everything from them. On breath too much - down you go. No arguments, no sports, no sex, no riding - nothing. What a lucky bastard I am. Someday it might return in the wrong moment. But riding keeps bad things at bay. I never share it in riding groups though. I feel guilty about that, but well...

It doesn’t happen every time I ride, but riding always makes me feel better. I have ridden since I was a little kid and I’m almost 59 now, but I think it would help just about anyone willing to try. Nothing makes me feel better!!!

@woundedtiger7547 Год назад

Thanks for sharing that. I definitely say that it does help the brain and the physicality. I started riding E bikes in 2018. At 65 years old. l had trouble throwing a leg over a bicycle. The more I tried the better it got. Then I saw Itchy boots, Dork in the road, And some other motorcycle bloggers in October 2021. And that was it. I wanted to go farther. I wanted to get out and see more. Don't get me wrong ebikes are great. Now I found a motorcycle I can get my leg over. I'll admit I was a little nervous. But every day that I get on that thing it gets better. I started off on a small lightweight klx230. With a seat height of 32.7". You can find them with lower weight and less seat height. And if you haven't ridden in a while I recommend taking lessons. That's what I will be doing in the spring.

St. George is so instantly recognizable to any native who spends any amount of time outside. They like to say we live in a national park. I think that is pretty accurate. This video was an awesome watch by the way!

Reminds me of all the benefits I get from freediving in the ocean! We go out in groups and use a buddy system to keep everyone safe, to go swim in kelp forests and see all the sea life. And of course mother nature can kick up the weather at any notice. Any challenge you give yourself is so good for your brain, because we get to adapt to overcome. Its one of the best part of being human, in my opinion.

I always feel better after riding. It’s always been street though. I have never ridden a dirt bike. This makes me want to try it.

@Hondeer Год назад

I've been through some messed up stuff in life. Makes sense why I'm attracted to forward motion based activities and why during hard MTB climbs, a lot of demons come out to play that I'm able to work through when at home working, I'm not.

@mullins6429 Год назад

What a great video about a subject that can be very difficult to talk about. The people who don’t ride motorcycles just don’t get it when you try and explain it to them the benefits of being out there.

You will never see a motorcycle parked in front of the therapist office. Motorcycling is the easiest , cheapest , quickest, healthiest way to help calm your brain and relieve stress. To a lesser degree there may be other activities that can achieve this relief , however, nothing compares the the stress relief you get from the thrill of riding. I'm 73 and I still ride , However, my body is beat up , broken and repaired . I have trouble walking , I can not hike any longer but I can still ride.

Yes it is. Just got out of a long depressive episode and getting on the bike again has helped so much

I found that as an American riding in Italy, having a motorcycle bridges the language and cultural gap very quickly. I ride alone a lot and get lost often so I pull over to check my route or location. Bikers always seem to slow down and give me a thumbs up to see if all is well. I return the thumbs up and off they go but know that if I was in trouble, they'd help me. I also have a near death experience everyday, lol. But that's just part of riding here. To avoid crashing, I have to stay in the moment, constantly scan and be alert. That can be exhausting and I am often wiped out after a long ride, especially in the city where I filter and split. I will often sit quietly later with a drink and think about my rides, often for long periods. I question my routes, my decisions, my near death experiences and critique my performances to make me a better rider. So the ride doesn't end with parking, I can mull over the events and enjoy the day, even several days later. My daily commute isn't enough and I often ride right past my place and keep going for a while longer. It's my happy place where nothing else matters but the next gear shift or curve. My motorcycle has healed my mind and clamed my soul long after I get off it. It's not for everyone, and maybe that's for the better. But it is or me.

@@soldat2501 north-west Tuscany (Versilia). I think it's a good spot for motorcycles because you can go from a beach to a mountain in an hour. I would say the border between Tuscany and Emilia (Garfagnana) is pretty popular among bikers.

AGREED! Ive done lots of sports from boxing/Judo, bodybuilding/powerlifting, BMX,MotoX, the hardest physical sport I have done is Enduro/Hard Enduro. Will never stop off road riding! It is the most rewarding, life enriching thing I have done. I do have a pretty good list of bones I have broken over 31 years of riding.

@Ben47471 Год назад

I used to have really bad trouble with double vision and the one and only thing that I could do without it bothering me was riding my Mountain bike in the woods, I assume riding a dirt bike would has about the same affect. Riding an ADV bike on the road did not help that was actually pretty hard

@noyopacific Год назад

The drone piloting I see where you fly it fast between tree branches at 1:41 demonstrates some remarkable skill (or maybe it was luck?) Thanks for the video Tyler.

@pistolingoo Год назад

As a drone pilot I can only imagine Tyler's rear end pucking up and his finger on the disarm button twitching :P Mentally I was also throttle punching out at that moment, I even flinched. Seems he's flying with ducts (much advised when flying close to other people), so a "foliage related" crash is a little bit more unlikely, but still I felt that :'D

@jensenmiller6410 Год назад

Great video Tyler! Maybe when you do videos like this you should pin a list of citations/links to the papers or do a quick scrolling list at the end of the video. It'd help hammer the point home even more!
