Motorcycle Riding Improves Physical Health
« on: May 12, 2015, 03:03:59 AM »
I saw this on Facebook via the Motoress page. It seems I've been getting healthy and didn't know it.

"This blog post is dedicated to every rider who’s sick to death of those “motorcycles are so dangerous” conversations, to every mother who’s convinced her son or daughter is insane for riding, and for anyone who needs a really good excuse to go out and buy a bike. The bottom line is that riding a motorcycle is a form of low-impact exercise that improves muscle tone, can assist with weight loss, and has a multitude of health benefits."

Excellent find.
I know I feel that my neck is stronger for wearing a helmet for hours every week.
All the rest is a bonus.
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

Not to mention the exercising of the mental faculties, by identifying every means of getting killed by cages.
