A bikies movie well worth watching
« on: March 06, 2014, 11:08:47 AM »
Whilst Bike Riding is a joyful and wonderful pastime for some, and a drag for others who need to use it to get too and from work, it is sometimes hard to stretch the mind to think just how much fun the actual riding is, and just how thoroughly enjoyable kicking your leg over the seat actually ends up. So I have added a link to a movie I found recently, which really does highlight what a wonderfully enjoyable process riding your two-wheeled velocipede actually is. It is called "Why We Ride" and it was produced in 2013. It is a long movie, and it is big, (1.5 hours and 700+K) so it's probably better to download it before you start to watch it, but it is well worth the outcome.

Have fun and enjoy watching what others do on two wheels.

Cheers

I concur - very much worth watching. It is perhaps a little longer than it needs to be, but it captures the romantic and emotional side of motorcycling well.
