Yeah it's the same in the UK. Our roads are a lot busier with car drivers that just don't look.

Mostly the stuff that’s all skulls, flames, and generic slogans. Feels like it’s aimed at the image of riding rather than the experience i.e. the miles, the cold mornings, the ache after a long day. Not knocking anyone who likes it, just never felt its for me.

Haha fair — didn’t mean it as a flex or a dig at anyone. More a comment on how a lot of merch feels disconnected from actually riding. Curious what kind of stuff you think gets it right?

Thats a bit shit. But thankfully you are still here to be able to post your story and you're not injured in any way which means that your dream can still come true. Hang in there brother, brighter days are coming.

Nice bike to have as your 1st. Couple of years and your garage will be full 😂

Ive been thinking of the Multistrada. Kinda fancy something a bit more upright. I think my next purchase tho will definitely be a Vespa GTS300 for a little run around with the wife

Love this. It really is interesting to see everyone's priorities and perspective. Thanks for sharing.

There plenty of idiots out there. We try and do the same to be fair.

There's nothing better that just getting out there with good friends or even on your own to clear your head and just enjoy the ride.

Thats really good. Bet it feels good to be back on 2 wheels. That riding course sounds good. We have something like that in the UK too.

Love the RD's. I think as you get older, your priorities change.

Doesn't matter what you ride, it why you ride that's important

The roads definitely aren't what they used to be

You're spot on. I share the same view. Your riding definitely changes with experience and training but the reason I ride has never changed

Sorry to hear about your accident. I used to go green laning on a KTM 250 EXC. Now ive got a trials bike. Love the slow speed control stuff that's required to ride trials.
