Post by Mr.Cool [Defender of Cities]Post by PatPost by Mr.Cool [Defender of Cities]-As for motercycles, well I agree with you on motorcycles and their
benifits, but their lack of comfort and relaxtion
WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT ??? Lack of comfort and
relaxation. Here's a hint. People drive them TO relax. If they
weren't fun, people wouldn't own them. Duh.
in relation to a
Post by Mr.Cool [Defender of Cities]four wheel car plays an effect on people
Why do you think they refer to cars as "cages". Because you're caged
in. Where the fun there?
What would you rather drive on a 6 hour trip, a Motorcycle or a
car. I realize that there are plenty of
huge motorcycle trips that peopel drive on, but when transporting
three somtimes and two more people
with luggage etc they are not the ideal moter vehicle. Iv been on a
motorcyle before and their pretty sweet and fun but
things like they are more dangerous then cars ( I realize life is
full of risks, but people this day in age don't really want another
risk to add to their life) and they require things like balence and
alittle bit more attentiveness (never driven one but thats what I
suspect) and people might not want to go threw drivers traning for
motorcycles. These reasons migth be pretty lame I know but people just
like to stay in their comfort zone.
Man, I wish I was 14 again. As the Bob Seger song says "I wish I
didn't know now what I didn't know then". At 14 one should be free
spirited and full of life and mayb (maybe) 1 step short of "damn the
consequences". It's the only time in your life to be like that.
You should be "it's to risky" or "stay in the confort zone". Go live
a little. And who gives a d**m what other people think, anyway.
Go take some risks. Go have some fun. Live a little. Otherwise you
risk growing old way too young and having a middle-aged crisis because
of all of the things that you didn't do.
While you're at it, get away from all of the PhD teachers. Know what
the degrees BS. MS. and PhD stand for: Bull S**t, More S**t, and
Piled Higher and Deeper. Don't bet impressed by credentials.
My 15-year-old has a black belt in karate, plays varsity soccer, is
the goalie on the JV lacrosse team, plays youth soccer, plays defense
in box lacrosse and yes; he's ridden on the back of my bikes for years
and wants on of his own. Plus he hunts a little and is a pretty good
shot. I almost forget, he also snowboards about twice a week in the
winter (without a helmet!). These are most high-risk activities --
but that is what you should be doing when you're 14 or 15. Oh, and he
doesn't worry one bit about urban planning or the fate of the city.
As for me, it's a nice sunny day and I need to go to city hall so I'm
going to hop on the bike and go. Boots, jeans, and a helmet -- no
leathers today. But that's a risk I take. Have fun on your mass
transit.
Post by Mr.Cool [Defender of Cities]I don't know the statistics,
but at least I know that Motercycles appear to be alot more dangerous
Post by PatPost by Mr.Cool [Defender of Cities]to people. esp because the fact that if you get in an accedent in a
motercyle its far more likly to be trama worthy because of its lack of
outside protection.
So? Life is full of risks.
Yes I know, but its just another reason why some people wouldnt be as
attracted to them.
These reasons add up.
I have never driven a motorcycle so I assume its alot cooler then just
riding in one but
I know these reasons appear to me as ones that might turn people off
for getting one.
