why do we ride motorcycles?

Wednesday 7th May 2025

why do we ride?
Riding a motorcycle
is a feeling of recognition
towards life.
The emotion begins with 
the preparatory rituals
 - boots, jacket, sunglasses
.The external inspection
of the motorcycle.
The ignition and the
rumbling of the engine
that tears through the 
morning silence. 
When you get on the
 motorcycle you become one, 
every sound is amplified,
 the vision sharpens. 
You listen to the engine.
 everything flows. 
It is mental and physical health.

I'm Riding for Men's Health in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride

Wednesday 7th May 2025 On Sunday the 18th of May 2025, I'm riding in The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride with fellow men and women across the globe to raise funds and awareness for prostate cancer and men's mental health on behalf of Movember. Men die on average 6 years earlier than women and for largely preventable reasons. The number of men that are suffering is growing, and we need to do something about that. So, before I press my tweed and polish my boots, I'm asking you to join me in raising funds and awareness for these causes by donating what you can for this meaningful cause and to help the men we love, live happier and healthier lives.
