...get a motorcycle for this spring. I'm tired of riding solo all the time. Pretty soon the weather is going to warm up and I need a buddy to ride around with. The following excuses for not getting a motorcycle are not valid:
1. "They are too dangerous" - if they were too dangerous they wouldn't be legal. Here's some tips. a. wear a helmet. b. don't drink or use drugs before riding. c. wear reflective/bright clothes. d. don't be an idiot. e. don't ride in poor weather/environment conditions. there I just upped your riding safety by about 90%.
2. "I can't afford it" - that's a lie. This is america! You don't even have to have money to buy things. :)
3. "My wife won't let me get one" - easy enough to get around. All you have to do is simply buy her one instead and (who knows) maybe she'll let you ride it.
4. "I have a family and I can't risk getting hurt or blah blah blah" - just get some good life insurance and they'll be taken care of.
5. "I am a bad driver and I don't think it would be smart driving a motorcycle" - wrong. It's better...for those of us who are scared of bad drivers like you. I'd like to get you behind the "wheel" of a less destructive vehicle. Bad drivers should drive mopeds, not tanks.
There you have it, there is no excuse. Now all we have to do is figure out the name of our new biker gang...I kind of like 'the Cobras.'
