The Magic Of Motorcycles And Why We Love Them
People like motorcycles for a many number of reasons. You do not have to ride a motorcycle to love them as they can be appreciated just like anything else. People who could never get to drive a Ferrari or a Lamborghini can still appreciate the beauty of the beast and the same is true when it comes to our two wheeled counterparts.
Motorcycles have a certain aura or mystique about them. Perhaps the Marlon Brando or Fonzie movie generation helped form this view. A view that motorcycles are only owned and driven by tough guys out looking for trouble. Nothing could be so much further from the truth. The truth is that most motorcyclists are Teddy Bears. They are doctors, lawyers and professionals who enjoy taking out their two wheeled freedom machine for a Sunday drive or a weekend getaway. The freedom and mobility that comes from taming a powerful machine under you is hard to describe at times.
Once you hit that open road, you start to feel the thrill of it all as you become one with open road, one with nature. It is a feeling that you have to experience in order to understand it. The wind blowing in your hair or face awakes you to a new found freedom. It is as if you have been unchained and released from bondage.
You do not have to drive a big Harley or a Ninja rocket bike in order to feel this way. Young kids on their mini bikes experience the same feelings and love of motorcycling as an experienced rider on his Honda Goldwing. Once you learn to master and control the machine, you are hooked for life. There is no turning back.
