Riding Out the Pandemic on Two Wheels: My Journey Through Three Years of Motorcycle Riding

in OCD2 years ago

Riding a motorcycle can be a fun and exhilarating experience. It offers a sense of freedom and independence that is hard to find in other modes of transportation. For many people, the sense of adventure and discovery that comes with motorcycle riding is a source of joy and fulfillment.

One of the most appealing aspects of motorcycle riding is the sense of connection it provides to the environment. Unlike driving a car, which encloses you in a metal box, riding a motorcycle allows you to feel the wind in your face and the sun on your skin. You are exposed to the sights, sounds, and smells of the world around you in a way that is not possible in a car.

Another benefit of motorcycle riding is the increased sense of control it offers. When you are riding a motorcycle, you are the one in charge. You are the one making the decisions about where to go and how to get there. This can be especially appealing to people who feel like they have little control over other aspects of their lives.

However, it's important to recognize that motorcycle riding is not without its risks. Motorcycles are much smaller and less visible than cars, which can make them more difficult for other drivers to see. This can increase the risk of accidents, especially in urban areas. In addition, motorcycles offer less protection to the rider than cars do, which means that injuries in motorcycle accidents can be more severe.

Despite these risks, many people find that the benefits of motorcycle riding outweigh the dangers. For these people, the sense of freedom and connection to the environment that comes with motorcycle riding is worth the risk.

Overall, motorcycle riding can be a fun and fulfilling activity for people who enjoy the sense of adventure and independence it offers. While there are certainly risks involved, for many people the rewards of motorcycle riding are well worth the effort.

Also, it would be advised to engage more as I see your last comment was in April, last year. Engagement on Hive is key.
