HOLY MOLEY - MC SAFETY STATS

Riding properly in group formation is challenging

Not on a Triumph

I ride solo 99.9 percent of the time for many reasons, but mostly riding solo is my way to decompress and think of nothing but riding!

Old school in many ways! necessity being the mother of invention, I believe because the squadron had a Scottish component which was too parsimonious to $pring for individual motors for each member.

You have hit the nail on the head there Jim.

I'm a believer in supporting whatever an individual wants to do on their bike.

• If they want to ride in a formation and wear colors, it may be stupid but if that rocks your boat ...
• If urban bar hopping is more fun, that's cool too but getting comfortable with regret - it's hard to fondle others when you're paralyzed
• Riding without a helmet is a very nice experience, but it's better to be at peace with protection. Besides, you can always find someone willing to blow on your head after the ride or you can blow on theirs
• Riding with music is also very cool, I do it, but never around crowded spaces. I'll even roll-down my truck window in parking lots to improve awareness. I can blast my Heavy Metal at home
• Riding fast is something I've been doing for years, we've all done it, because as riders we see better and are on very capable machines. We enjoy it as long as we can, or at least until we don't want to anymore

In the end, the risk associated with riding isnt exactly the same experience as unprotected partying your preferred one-nighter; but can represent a similar discussion thread

I find shooting distant targets just as decompressing. In many ways better.
When I decompress on 2 wheels I seem to get VERY fast. And start power drifting on roundabouts.
Still have a bit to learn mind you.
