Why We Ride is a movie/documentary coming out soon about why we ride motorcycles. Here is the trailer.
So, why do we ride? What ignites and feeds the passion? For example I'm still sorting out my experience last October when I took the back roads from the Akron, Ohio area to Oak hill WV to do a white water raft ride on the lower Gauley River during Gauley season.
When I arrived at the resort someone turned to me and excitedly said the adventure starts tomorrow morning. I replied the adventure started two days and 400 miles ago for me. I took a different ride home and used the main state highways and Interstates to get home easily in one day.
Fall trip, southern West Virginia mountains, trees starting to turn, and a great ride to and from the raft ride. I do think both the ride and the raft trip would have been lessened if they were not done at the same time.
Why do we ride?

I ride because (1) it cheap transportation and (2) I hate being in a cage.

I just cannot enjoy riding in a car when the weather is nice. I want to ride a bicycle or scooter.

Actually it has been out for a while already. I got the DVD the other day and watched. Not much is even seen of scooters and nothing that I recall that mentions scooters either. (did see a few scenes of scooters here and there... Even Craig Vetter's Helix streamliner and others) Closest they get is a little bit of talking about mini-bikes. But at the root of it all is the 2 wheeled motorbike experience...... almost beyond words really, but they get it. Worth watching ...... once at least.

I ride for the wind against my body when its warm enough lol I ride cause going thru curvey roads is a blast. I love twisting the throttle, leaning into a turn and going!
