You know, "Motorcycle Diaries" has no incredible stories, no sudden plot twists, it doesn't play that way. It's about recognizing that instance of change and embracing it. ~Gael Garcia Bernal
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

You start the game with a full pot o’ luck and an empty pot o’ experience...
The object is to fill the pot of experience before you empty the pot of luck.

When was the last time you just got up and went for a drive? Not to anywhere not for anything, just for drive. You see, motorcyclists do it all the time, so why don't human beings? Jeremy Clarkson- Top Gear

"I try to have a different relationship with the bike. I don't give it a name, but I always speak with it. I don't know if the other riders do the same. This is not only a piece of metal - there is a soul. The bike talks back too. But not with a voice, with the components" Valentino Rossi

A cold hamburger can be reheated quite nicely by strapping it to an exhaust pipe and riding forty miles.

If you really want to know what’s going on, watch what’s happening at least five vehicles ahead.

If the person in the next lane at the stoplight rolls up the window and locks the door, validate their view of life by snarling at them.

A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

Is that because they hurt more than a broom if they hit you with it
or because she might know more than you who never uses a torque wrench?
