In a cage its the destination, on a bike its the journey. Its that simple, at least for me. Been riding for 45 years and still love it. Look inside a car on the highway, everyone including the driver is asleep or filling their faces with junk food. Look at the faces on the bikes you see. Most are aware of their surroundings and enjoying every second of the journey, be it long or short. If you go out for a coffee in a car, you go down to the corner. If you go out for a coffee on a bike, you find some place 50 miles away. That says it right there.
