    Being 38 years old is not too old to yearn for the open road on a motorcycle. So long as your reflexes are keen and you're aware of the disinterested or distracted drivers that could easily cream you continue your love for the bikes.

    I think you know the advantages and disadvantages of riding a motorcycle as opposed for a four-wheeler: bad weather, slippery roads, higher insurance rates, and unobservant drivers. Despite those disadvantages, the thrill and feel of raw power under a rider is still strong for those in the saddle.

    I sold my 1983 FLH in 2002 because it needed serious overhauls to keep it running. Nevertheless, I would love to straddle another Harley if my finances were better and my wife wouldn't go ballistic.

    Ride if you want.

    But since this is truly a concern everywhere, do you have any spare time to give to an advocacy group for bike safety? Speak at driver ed courses, hand out safety literature at community events, etc.

    I fairly like it. It jogs my memory of the call Masha, yet via fact it would not have "Mash" in it, i like it plenty greater. I actual have a attractiveness resembling Nasha on my record (no longer Natasha. lol.) it is amazing, trouble-free, and that i admire the nickname Nash.

    If you want to get rid off bike addiction then made your self busy in life with other works. If you are busy then you find less time for your self to go for drive. . .
