Ddark man...
I am sure you have enjoyed bicycles...
that feeling of travel and enjoying the scenery ...being "in" the scenery...part of the environment...
a motorcycle...hell...even the lowly scooter..gives an absolute feeling that surpasses the joy of the bicycle.
The only thing I do not like about cars and trucks is the sitting on a couch ..staring out a rectangular screen and not being immersed in the environment.
It is a divorce from reality.

The only time I deal with adrenaline is when I ride in traffic...
Then it is 360 watchfulness ...since I do not trust 4 wheeled drivers to be responsible.
It is just sane defensive driving....
and it is less an addictive feeling as it is like a first person shooter game...and you are always up against bigger foes..and you are always looking ...planning ...and if necessary executing an escape route in a heartbeat ...at any given moment.
It enforces one to be aware, alert, use one's prob solving centers of the brain.
Its good for body mind and soul ...all around.

For me where I live...
I don't deal with traffic much....
It is rare.
a car ...or two...perhaps 4 on my touring of Gabriola.
So it is just a carefree joy of enjoying the drive...as slow or quick as one wishes.

Van. Isle is different...it is busier...and so I only take major roads when I really ahve little other choice to get past them to enjoy roads more quiet to rip down..

And the weather here has been stellar the last few decades here.
Why ...for our northern rain forest ...today we got rain for 3 hours! a drizzle..though...
we have had perhaps 3 or 4 days of rain since Christmas ...thanks to our changing climate...(and we used to have rain solid from September to the next June...and then have a couple dry months ...then rinse and repeat...so it doesn't bode well for our ecosystem here...but...)
It sure as hell is fabulous for going for a tour on the cycle every day...

And electric...is fab.
You are completely aware of every sound around you...
the cycles are just that silent..
So quiet you can hear autumn leaves crunching under your tires..

If you got one now...
I promise you would sit back for a few days ...and spend the time kicking yourself for not having gotten one years and years ago...
