I saw this commercial several years ago and was so impressed with it. It is such a good representation of what a good ride does to you,especially with old friends. Thanks for posting this again.

For me, it's a passion. I have no other hobbies. I don't fish or hunt and I not a sports fan unless there are rubber tires and spark plugs involved. With the exception of NASCAR - that's 4 wheel yacht racing, not car racing. Sorry, that's me.
It's also the huge circle of friends and acquaintances I have accumulated over the decades of riding that keeps me in. In fact, most all our friends are riders.
Riding for me is also a cerebral douche. When riding, I am concentrating so thoroughly on the ride, that other cares evaporate from my mind.
At 84, I have no intention to stop riding, or slow down - whatever vehicle it takes to do so. And have fellow riders in their 70s and 80s who are cut from the same cloth.

YES! Have not seen this one yet. Great inspiration. The Vulcan is now gone, but our intentions are to take out the Spyders and get a nice ride in today. And according to the age group, I still have a few more years to enjoy my also favorite pass time. :firstplace:

Riding is a passion with great memories.

Well stated sir. As for NASCAR, it has sadly gone the way of the NFL. The late George Halas would be appalled.
