Was having a long discussion with son about riding, well he wrote a paper about riding for school. The short of it, his teacher was very critical about bike riding. Told him there was no valid reason to get on two wheels and take your life into your own hands nearly everyday.
Son was visibly upset about this. His teacher told him to research it more for his next paper. He has been doing quite a bit research on boards, medical journals, even found afew psychiatirc journal articles addressing the so called "biker mentality", alot of this stuff is negative.
Just my curiosity , how about some input as to why we ride from fellow riders.
Long -short doesnt matter, help a young teenager out with some encouragement about our so called "biker mentality".
I told him, I ride because of the freedom it gives me. Not alot of that anymore. I have control of my life and where I am going when I ride. I see more than when I am in a car. Then on the other hand, it is the exhiliration, in a day and age of sedentary lifestyles. A challenge everytime I start the bike and pull out of the garage. And there is always the adrenaline part, that makes your body feel alive.
Anyone else got input for a teenager?
Does anyone have any objections if he references qoutes he might use in his paper?
