Amen brother! I started riding at 61. Four years later: the good news, one or two tours every summer; the bad news, three bikes in the garage. Riding a motorcycle is as close as we can come to flying like a bird. It’s all about mass and momentum. Velocity and friction. Acceleration and braking. Like a bird you fly around corners a foot off the ground. It’s a profound experience of the physics of the world in which we live.
Me having a motorcycle license at 28 thinking it was considered “late”, then I see ppl in their 40s and 60s doing it! Respect to all of you. Ride safe everyone 😙
yo, me wishing i had a bike by 22, but cuz of life stuff i managed to get my own loved machine, perfect fast for me machien at 34, and still i consider it the most valuable asset for me at the moment, is just magic.
I got my first jacket and helmet! Saving my for my wheels but even as a young, European female rider, your channel has given me so much confidence to start my motorcycle journey❤️❤️❤️❤️
Got back into riding after, 18 years. Brought a joy back to my life I forgot I was missing. No matter how shit you day is, it's real damn hard to not grin like an idiot after some 2nd gear pulls
I started riding last year. I started riding because it’s always looked super cool and, well, I’m a big boy now and can just buy things with my big boy money.
I’m 30 years old and completed my first season of riding last year, self taught. What I love about it, is feeling so “dialed in.” Just so focused and free at the same time
I am a 46 year old man and just started riding a motorcycle last year! I have to say it is one of the most rewarding feelings in the world. I am so happy I finally started to ride and to be honestly it is also super healthy. Yes healthy, because when i lost 10 pounds! I did some research and i read that motorcycles give you a core workout unlike driving a car. You will also save on gas!!! I say if you ever wanted to ride a motorcycle, give it a chance, and do not be stupid! Do not speed, do not try and play chicken with a car, and always wear your gear.
@@SoulTouchMusic93 yes indeed a great work out.. specially on a racer position (clip ons)... adding heavier stuff on your riding backpack even gives you more strenght training....
You’re also exposed to the element on a motorcycle than in a car. I remember hearing in a Andrew Huberman podcast that it’s good to be exposed to cold early in the day as it releases more dopamine and increases testosterone if I remember right. So if you commute to work in the morning, you’re likely getting those benefits from a neuroscience perspective and the benefits of increased vitamin D😊
@@christians131 My brother is also riding he is about 400 pounds and he started riding and his weight was holding him back to a point that when he went to the class to get his license he was too big and could not complete it. He did not give up and he was able to complete the class this year and is losing weight. He is getting out of the house for the first time in 20 years and he loves it! So yes riding might have added years to his life. His wife was upset with me until she seen that he was getting out of the house and doing things, and now she is riding a scooter and they ride around the neighborhood together. I am so glad for them!!!
Being in my 40's I never even considered riding motorcycles until one day last summer it hit me that my life has been so safe and boring. We need adventure in our lives and getting my license and buying a new Yamaha MT 09 (such a good looking bike) has been the best life changing decision I've ever made. When the weather is good, you can just get on your bike and ride with no destination in mind, two three four days whatever just go find fun scenic roads and enjoy.
I started riding horses and I loved the fun and peace of moving around in the open air. When life happened and I couldn’t be around them anymore, motorcycles were the next best thing
I started riding a few months ago. I've wanted to do it for years but a few things got in the way. Well I got divorced earlier last year and that was one of the biggest hurdles (she didn't want me riding) and after that, it was just a matter of finding a class and being smart money wise. Now I have a motorcycle and it's fantastic!
I had my first experience on a motorcycle at 18 months when my dad would accelerate in the parking lot at our apartment with me sitting on the tank. Been obsessed with bikes ever since. Can't wait for all this snow to melt and get back on my bike
I’m 33 years old and and fresh on riding motorcycles. I love it and it’s definitely mentally challenging, you need to constantly stay focused on the road.
Love this vid and great timing. I'm 43 and just getting into riding, done all the first level training and just waiting for my bike which is a SV650 to be delivered hoping with in a few days. Getting into it for the freedom of travel and the feeling you get from being so out in the elements and indeed the risk does trigger something primitive in my brain. I know at 43 I'm not going to be racing around county lanes but can't wait to be riding and explore the beautiful coast roads around me that I've never explored. Thank for the postive video!
@@howesteve966 great to hear! All reviews I've seen and anyone that has or had one always speaks of that model as great fun and a great all purpose bike and sounds like you agree. Looking forward to joining the SV650 family!
@kayamiller The SV is an amazing motorcycle. Fast enough to keep you entertained but not so fast that it's intimidating. I had my lessons on one and loved the 2 cilinder sound and torque so much that I got a VTR 1000 Firestorm as a first bike...I'd never would consider getting a 4 in line after this anymore. You'll get addicted to that hammering sound and torque...
@@JamoZNL as I'm new to riding I felt buying totally new was not wise but found a good deal with a 2020 model 12k on the clock with a little plus of heated hand grips which as I'm in Ireland this time of year they are very helpful!
I started riding because I felt like I was stuck at a job that I hate, my home life was almost as dull as work, and at 51, I needed to find something to do for my sanity. People talk shit about a midlife crisis being something washed-up has-beens go through as they pine for their lost youth. Not me. I felt incredibly depressed that I was only halfway through life and ready for it to be over. I still feel a tinge of disappointment when my alarm wakes me up and I realize that I made it through another night, but, at least now, I know there will be some portion of my day, even if it's only half an hour or so, that I will spend doing something I enjoy. F-off, world, I'm riding!
The feeling after riding your bike, when you have been riding hard with razor sharp focus. Nothing matters except the next 3 seconds of life. Not bills or responsibilities of any kind. You're just existing pure and raw. This, the exact goal of meditation. This is why after a good day of riding we feel so refreshed. Ride safe brothers!
I live in Australia and ride a ZX10R as my daily commute. I have owned a bike as my daily since I was 18. I am now 50. I have a 15 min ride to work almost all of it on an expressway. Entering the Expressway at 40-50 kph over the limit to seamlessly merge into traffic and then slow down the the fast lanes speed is a rush. Then you get the days when another rider (on any kind of machine) is travelling with you. The two of you move as one through the traffic and I usually sit behind the other guy as it looks so cool as we weave in and out. Then he takes his exit and you both nod or wave as you part. You just shared a pretty intimate moment with a total stranger, and they loved you for it because you both have a love of motorbikes, and that makes you respect each other. No words are shared just the riding and a nod farewell.
I recently got into motorcycles around the middle of 2022. Before I could get one to ride, my father passed away in late July. I went and did the MSF course in late October. My father's bike was left to me. I finally got it up here to NC around the middle of January. So I go from the MSF course in October to getting my dad's 2016 ultra glide limited in January and lo' and behold that is my first bike. It has been quite interesting learning to ride the big bastard but at least I get to ride with my father in some capacity.
Whenever I have hard day at work or stressed, I just go for a ride open the throttle. By the time I get back to house I feel happy and relived. And still they ask why we ride.
I started being a rider due to love; My daughter is 60 miles away from me, and I saved all I could to get me a bike, and now I can see her more often and not slay my finances while at it. Also, a nice ride clears the mind from the crap from work or just a bad day. You don't need to get to warp speed, I'm more in the line of just your engine purr, the road and the sound of the wind eroding your thoughts and silencing your inner demons. And don't get sleepy while so
My first ride ever on a bike was over 40 years ago. As a pillion I travelled about 250 miles across northern Zambia (central Africa) on the dirt roads (then back again), on the back of my big brothers Kawasaki KH500 triple cylinder 2 stroke. One of the most insane experiences of my life. 2 year later I got my first bike. In my 50's now, and I still ride virtually every day. I can't imagine life without the wind (and rain) in my face.
Everyone I knew that used to ride, stopped. Typical excuse is the "It's too dangerous now." line. It's always been dangerous, and always will be. But there are ways to mitigate that danger. Choosing how to ride, where to ride, when to ride, and who to ride with. Yes, it's going to be extremely dangerous for those who think you MUST do 120+ everywhere you go, and every chance you get. Yes, it's going to be dangerous if you want to drink before/while riding. Yes, it's going to be dangerous to go jump into rush hour traffic with your bike. Yes, it's going to be dangerous if you choose not to wear protective gear, and end up crashing. I can't help but think that all of these dudes need their "man-card" taken away. :)
Hi Yammi, What great thoughts about motorcycle riding! Stress relief for me starts from just getting ready to ride. Your mention of "sense of adventure" sums up my cruising any random neighborhood or road just to see what's out there. The fun to be had is a given.
After being terrified of bikes for so long, I’m going down in a month and taking my MSF and I can’t wait to buy my first bike. I’ve narrowed it down to an R3 for my first bike and I want that FREEDOM
You will have zero regrets. You will be window shopping for your next bike before the month is over. Go used but in great condition, save yourself some money for that next bike.
@@nonyabusiness4151 thanks for the advice! I hope I won’t be looking for the next one within a month, I like to get well acquainted with anything I own. And buying used a good tip! I like the front of the 15-17 R3s a lot compared to the newer ones.
@@Splenectomy0 He speaks truth, at least in my case its true. Just got my license earlier this month. Had my bike for 3 months, but already window shopping a new bike. I've only been riding for 3 weeks total, 60miles to be exact lol. Mine is a chinese clone 250cc bike. Its small, but still crazy fun. The power makes you wanting more, but I'm going to try and last at least a year before I upgrade.
honestly ima disagree with you, 30 years ago i would have agreed, but the problem is that people dont pay attention anymore, the jerks that make us all look bad are bad enough but the people that dont pay attention? which is like 85% of americans, will just die...i cant tell you how many times i would see squids wreck their 750 then buy 1000 because the 750 wasnt fast enough
Yammie out here asking the real questions... why do we need 2 metric tons of plastic, glass, and steel for one person to have the freedom to commute to the grocery store that is perfectly placed 3.75km from my home? That's it bois, I'm moving to Europe.
If you’re a dude, your motorcycle is probably not going to get you girls. But ladies, guaranteed you show up to bike night with your ride you will get more guys than Chloe Moretz would on tinder
Iam 56 and riding for 5 years , I’ll say there nothing like riding , flying without wings takes all stress out of you easily better than the best therapy , throw a leg on it and go feel the wind , cooking legs it’s a joy ,,, freedom at its best👍👍😂be cool on the stool
At this point I’m convinced riding a motorcycle is a religion and yammie noob is the priest of the holy church of rossi. If your not convinced, this video confirms it. 😂
Grew up around bikes and cars from 3-4 on,started on a 3.5 Briggs, went to a Z50 and so forth. everybody I knew had brothers that rode dirt or street. Couldn’t afford a car in school so I got a bike(77’ kz1000)and learned to commute unless it snowed then I rode the bus. I also raced enduro for years 77’-86’ It just doesn’t get any better than two wheeled Yoga at 70mph, Thanks for the vid ✌️🇺🇸
Rode a Bajaj Pulsar 150cc In India from the age of 21- 24. After 13 years, restarted Riding again 2 years back in USA on Triumph bobber 1200 cc.... Once a Rider, always a rider...
Started riding in the seventys, there are many reasons to ride for one you need to be physically in shape mind and body so it is a benefit to stay in shape . But my favorite reason is it keeps you young .
Technically I'm still very much nubbish (only got a two-wheeler last year), and I haven't ever done the motorcycle thing (went from a Ruckus to a PCX, so technically a motorcycle by some definitions, but still a scooter), but. A lot of those fit the same mold. There's just something so freeing and pure-fun that comes along with this stuff. Also >100mpg on the vehicles I've ridden means I can get lost without breaking the bank or feeling like I'm wasting resources or being environmentally unconscionable. I mean, commuting to work for 3 weeks without ever touching a gas pump was also useful. IDK, all the stuff you mentioned was stuff I found--other than the exhilaration of running up a >100mph maneuver, since I'll probably never get to that point on my PCX unless I strap a rocket to it. :D
I learned to ride when i was 8 years old. I'm now 51 and still ride. I've always had a bike. Sometimes many. My wife hates them. I'm picking up a 2023 Kawasaki Z900RS because i want a Retro one like my dad had in the 70s. Its going to be 36f tomorrow. Can't wait to ride it home.
Riding motorcycles was something that interested me from a young age. I've grown up riding and racing MTB and got my first taste of motorcycling when I was around 14 and rode some cheap crappy 125 four stroke. I rode random bikes very occasionally over the years. 9 years later (last summer) I took a beginners course and bought my first bike after a hard break up. It helped me. I've struggled with depression ever since I can remember and since I started riding, I rarely if ever have bouts of depression anymore. I love riding because of the raw experience. Not many vehicles accelerate like a motorcycle and I can't help but grin ear to ear every time I do a 2nd gear pull (even on my Husky Dual sport 610). You notice new things about routes that you have driven a thousand times. Where my bike can take me is almost limitless. It's decent for most riding, but excels at no type. It's not so much about the destination, as it is the journey. It's the sunset seen as you make your way down a windy mountain road. It's rolling through my quiet suburban neighborhood in the evening and seeing young kids grinning ear to ear as they stare at me roll past. It's the teenagers with their heads poked out the window yelling "Do a wheelie!" It's the unsolicited comments from older riders at the gas station that start with "I used to have a bike just like that years ago...." and the stories that come from these folks. It's being humiliated as some short, young kid gets my bike unstuck. It's remembering that there is something to be learned from every rider you come across.
I grew up riding and ride now for pleasure when the weather is good. Motorcycles are just cool and fun. You don’t have to break speed records or the law either to enjoy it.
I bought my first motorcycle about four months ago. I'm a gearhead but cars got too expensive to keep up with, prompting me to buy a brand new z125 from my work. I work 10 minutes from home. It'll be perfect for scooting around town when it warms up a little.
I started riding at the ripe age of 4 years old on a dirt bike. But the joy of an open road and not having to pay $35 to ride at a track each time I want to ride makes my motorcycle experience amazing
It's in my blood. Started with an 8 horsepower micro cycle. West end two stroke. Vicious thing with no suspension. Just waiting to highside you on a dirt road, knock the wind out of you, burn your leg, eat your jeans, throttle where the front brake lever should be. Just a beast. After that a Sears MoPed. Two speed, pull in the clutch and twist the whole mess to change from Hi to Lo. Pedaling was impossible in either gear. Also shifting was not an option. You had to decide what range you wanted to ride in, the manually adjust the clutch cable for that gear only. Compared to the micro cycle it was a relaxing new adventure. After that, a brand new blue Honda 50 Supersport with FOUR speeds!!!!! I was off to the world of adventure. Riding the neighborhood until I hallucinated.
GUYS GUYS GUYS. If you live in a city and you want to truly have even more fun then a motorcycle and it's cheaper just from your first year in ownership (depending on the motorcycle?) A hyper electric scooter!!! (I.e. NAMI Burn-E, kaabo wolf king GT, venom 11 just to name a few). With these scoot's, you're likely never to pay over 5k for any of em.. - you'll get at least 50-60miles on a charge targeting 30-35mph - can fast charge to take you from 0-100% charge as fast as 3.5hrs (faster if you still have juice when you plug them in to fast charge) - are waaay cheaper to maintain and modify - you can take these on bike paths, ride them in bike lanes, or on sidewalks if either of the other two are available. - in almost all states they don't need to be registered - don't require insurance either. - can hook up a pet/child bicycle trailer to it and use it as a food delivery vehicle. - highly highly weather resistant so we aren't worrying about rainy days (check scooter model your interested in to verify it's credentials on weather resistance) - can all cruise at 55mph NO PROB - max speeds of the scoot's Ive mentioned are between 62-73mph If you have big balls you can dip into the EUC (Electric Uni Cycles) the Sherman Max and Commander EUC's are getting north of 150miles on a charge depending on speed and rider weight. These also carry the same perks as a electric scooter minus the speed but they make up with doubling the range of an electric scooter and are more portable. You can throw em in the trunk of your small ass car and drive yourself somewhere cool and enjoy at least 100miles (depending on model) of just open air and riding. I don't sell either types but holla at me if y'all have questions. And I ride motorcycles, I just have more fun on the electric scoots. They truly are quite amazing! Yammie....you outta try one and I'm not talking about a lime scooter. Find someone with a hyper scooters and try it out. Their sheer performance will blow you out of your mind. Don't get me started on the surrons and other high performance electric "bicycles"
0:25 Absolutely wrong. Humans are just humans. Humans are unique like no other creature. The universe is ours to conquer and it revolves around us. If anyone sees himself coming from apes that's your opinion.
I disagree, nowadays, you should not be riding motorcycles. Nowadays people text and drive, it wasn't like that when I started riding. Car and truck and SUV drivers are more reckless than ever. If you want adrenaline or a high, it is actually safer to just do drugs. The internet destroyed politics (made it so polarized) and the smartphone ruined motorcycling.
For my 67th birthday I bought myself a secondhand Suszuki Vstrom 650. Nine years later I ride a Triumph Tiger 1050. I now have a great set of mates I ride with called the Monday Mafia and every Wednesday ride with another group called the Knitting (insane name) Group. We laugh a lot, discuss the world, drink coffee and eat custard squares (a kiwi sort of cake). Sadly we see depressed men watching us enviously while their wives glare at us. And thank whatever being we believe in that we ride motorbikes, explore the country and have great mates.
I ride for freedom. I always ride bmx bikes and dirt bikes as a kid. I still build and sell bmx stuff. Last few years I rode e-bikes and broke my leg due to some asshole opening his door and me not fast enough to ride in the middle of the road with traffic so bought a motorcycle. This is my second summer riding.
Everything you mentioned is spot on my man. I’ve wanted to ride for years but getting divorced and being a single parent, I cannot afford to do the test as it’s around £900 in the uk and then buying and running a bike is impossible to find. Il just have to wait until my son is grown up. Ah well it’s only 15 years away 😢
The point that driving a car is boring is why I drive a manual. Banging through gears makes any drive better. Even rush hour in Columbus OH! :) (just get behind a semi and roll as slow as you can in 1st, almost no braking and steady progress). I am getting into motorcycling this year though and can hardly wait to ride!
I started riding in 1978 16 years old and still riding every year for 46 years. I moved to the Philippines a year ago bought a Yamaha 155 sniper. Smaller than my roadster I had but still lots of fun riding and commuting affordability.

To commute I do 7Km/L, usually it's 1.8+ € per litre but today I chose 100 octanes which is 2.1+€ per litre. So I wanted a 125 like Honda CB 125 R, or MT125 or another Minarelli motard. Never rode on road a 125. I had a competition Beta Trial 2T 125 which didn't even have a cat. Could wheelie in 4th. So I'm a noob. And I like very light bikes. I'm a hooligan on my car so I know I'll be a danger. Would you say that a bike would be an economical wise decision?
I’m planning on getting my first bike in 4 years and I know that might sound like a long time but it really isnt. I plan on getting a naked bike with cheap but stable gear aswell my A1 license and afterwards I’m gonna get that sportbike just you wait and see.
What got me interested? Honestly it boiled down to "I wanna be a cool kid!" and a college roommate had a Honda Shadow 750. So Of course I wanted to ride too, I asked him how to start and he recommended the MSF course, which at the time OH subsidized so it was only $50 back in 2014, not sure if they still do that. Anyway I made time for the class and passed, took my test results to the local DMV and got my endorsement. The first bike I got was an MSF worthy (and nothing more) 2007 Honda Rebel 250 and I adored it! Rode it for a year before totaling it and not riding for another 9 years after when I was finally in a position to buy a new 2023 Honda Rebel 500, excellent commuter and I already have 11,000 miles on it.
"For what reason did I start?", well truthfully, I haven't started. I did ride and fell off a scooter when I was 6... I rode my Father's one dirt bike on a short enduro track once... I took a quad bike for a spin in the Saudi desert, jumped a dune, but that was about it. Until last week. My father passed away almost 2 years ago, and while my druggie-half-brother stole and sold off most of our Dad's stuff... somehow his two project bikes ended up at one of my long lost ex-brother-in-laws. He contacted us and said our Dad would have wanted us to have the bikes, to keep them in the family. So, my bro and I are now the proud new owners of two BMW R100 Airheads. One R100RT and a R100CS. Dad was rebuilding them with the goal of turning them into Cafe Racers from his bygone days. So they are in pieces, spread across a bunch of crates, and in need of much attention. And I still need a licence. :)
The only thing keeping me from getting a motor cycle is not financial it's just safety man. I already have 2 friends that passed away I accidents. I got one of my friends leather jackets he wore while riding, not when he passed away though, and since then I had a even bigger urge to get one but damn....I don't want to go out that way. Any words of encouragement?
Thought for sure my bad@$$ bike would garner attention from hot girls, or just girls, but alas it didn’t. No, it’s actually a big D-magnet. Even my jacket is too. Like.. bro your jacket is cool too.. and I’m like, yeah I know🙄.. Actually just riding is a blast, so whatever😂
Bicycles are actually not really efficient than motorcycles, imo. Bicycles are still private vehicles afterall, and require many supporting infrastructures that are no less than ICE vehicles. On a bicycle, u will probably use it alone, which could be another problem for usability & traffic it could bring. Also, as u said, the performance figures are far more advanced with the small kind of money that we have. We only produce like 2-3 hp while cheapest 125cc motorcycle could produce 9-11 hp without the need to break a sweat. Of course, the drawbacks are emissions, fuel, fast moving parts, and taxes, but I think that's quite a small price to pay to own one. The only most efficient way of transportation than a motorcycle for me is public transportation. Bicycles should have become the OPTION of transportation, not a MUST that it's always been proposed.
I ride because I’m one of the rare cases where both sides of my family were/are riders. It’s just normal and something we do that’s ordinary, not out of the ordinary. There’s something just relaxing and more immersive to the living experience when you’re on two (or three) wheels where you can see everything around you. The interesting thing is if you ask 100 riders why they ride, there’s tons of reasons in common…but there will be 100 different personal reasons why they ride. Some ride for the thrill, some ride for the relaxation from a hectic life, some ride for strength and in finding themselves in who they really are, etc. For example, I’ve seen women who were shy and afraid of the world. Very low confidence and unsure of themselves. They started riding and they grew into strong, confident women who faced the world with courage. Motorcycles are for everyone and it’s a true life changer for the better in all aspects (except For your wallet/purse because once you buy one, you’ll have difficulty stopping!)
Just remembered, insurance plays a big role in getting a bike, and nobody seems to want to talk about it. For a new rider it will be very expensive, especially if you go new and get a sports bike. Sometimes, that bike you want might carry a big insurance premium. I would like a kawasaki z400 or Trident 660, but insurance is like $2400 a year. A honda rebel 500, for example, is like $1200, half! That sorts of kills the purpose for those who don't see them as toys and just want a cheap form of transportation. I myself am looking for a used Honda rebel 500, not because it is my dream bike, but because it's the cheapest way to get myself into motorcycles.
My Zero SRS and I have put in 7300 miles in the 4 months we have been together. (no gas bill !!!) AND at least 120 miles to a charge. Most of the mileage has been at 70mph. For the record I'm 64 yrs old.
I ride cus I can filter through traffic very easily when it is crowded. A motorcycle adds a lot of mobility to the equation of power and speed. You can just park in front of your location without looking for a big parking space, etc. Besides it's just hella fun to ride.
Lets see...i had a choice to make. Either buy a truck that every one in my family would want for themselves (I'll never get a chance to use it). Or buy a Dual Sport that no one would dare ride because "Bikes kill people!". Despite the fact that on average 5-6k deaths on motorcycles per year in the US compared to 46,000 deaths on average in a car. Something about being so over confident and relaxed has really over shadowed the dangers on the road.
Man one day like 3 weeks ago something in my soul just gripped me and told me I need to start riding a motorcycle. I don't know what it was. All I've been doing is watching motorcycle content. With my expenses it'll take a while to save up for something like a Ninja 400 but I'm sold. One day man. One day.
nobody in my family rides lol, i started riding this year zx6r finally being old enough to pay for it myself , always seeing bikers fly jus gives me so much adrenaline i couldn’t wait any longer
My dirt bike friend got me into motorcycles. This dude and his dad never got motorcycle licenses but they would ride a dual sport 250 any where and every where hahaha. Most bad ass mfer I’ve ever seen riding away from my house on a 250 at night. My mom asked him.” Arnt you scared” he said “ if I was scared I wouldn’t be doing this” Now years later homies dad sold the dual sport and homie moved to dirt biking country and we never got to ride the roads together even once. Once he got off the road I got on it. Kinda a weird circle but I’m gonna get that fool on a sports bike so we can mob
I started riding for two reasons. First, working at a dealership at the time, I needed to be able to make use of all of the products. Secondly, I have this insatiable desire for the most engaging driving/riding experiences I can find, seriously, the weirder, the better. from all manner and vintages of cars, Ag and construction equipment, military vehicles, boats... you name it, I might have driven it. If I haven't yet, I want to.
It's fascinating how first world and third world feel about motorcycles. Here we ride because we can never afford a car. If I ever get a car I'd never touch a motorcycle again. THere's no freedom man. It's hot and humid especially on this island. I worry about my kids on the bike with me all the time. Then when it's monsoon season it pours for months. It's pisses me off every time shitty driver cuts me off because we're on a bike and they're in a metal safety box with wheels. So it's a loop where I take shit until one day I decided this mofo picked the wrong one today. It's no fun man. My wife doesn't understand why I get upset when people do that. I wish we had a car. lol
This make me feel better im 31 and a female i want to get my premit tbh thinking of taken my course since DMV wavier the riding test but I been nervous since im a female plus I been wanted to do this for years
