Mississippi Bullfrog Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 To be fair I used to be but these days I take a more chilled attitude to riding and find it much more relaxing and to be honest more rewarding.What I love is the freedom, some time to myself, the wind noise which drowns out my persistent tinnitus, and best of all moments like yesterday when I pulled onto a motorway alongside another biker. We rode about 20 miles together then he gave me a wave when he peeled off up a slip road. No idea who he was - just another bloke on a bike who shared a few miles.I get my adrenalin sailing boats these days. You can be as much of a hooligan as you want and there are no speed cameras on the water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR_W Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I like adrenalin. I wouldn't sky dive or bungee jump as my fear of heights would paralyze me but I have flown an aircraft (and love flying), I ski, play ice hockey and go kart. Have also driven a single seater car and want to try a rally car at some point.Also looking at airsoft as I enjoy paintball but the price of paintball and the people there can be off putting.I probably get a bigger adrenaline kick from being at a circuit watching the BSB or motogp than actually riding currently just because the noise is that great.

madcow87 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I'm happy to admit that I'm a bit of an adrenaline junkie. I grew up skateboarding, riding BMX and that migrating into mountain biking. I've always enjoyed anything that gets the blood pumping a bit. Go karting, bungee jumps, drifting, rallying, track days etc...but funnily I do kind of meander along on a bike, admittedly I'm new to it so I'm not 100% confident and at some point I'm probably gonna do something daft, but at the same time I think if I do it'll be on a circuit where the traffic flows one way.I have got a family now with 2 kids that I'll happily admit I'll do anything for. I'm in no rush to bury myself 6 feet under and visit everyone's favourite imaginary friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
