California Biker Attorney and Motorcycle Accident Lawyer Norman Gregory Fernandez at the Beach Ride
The main reason I like riding motorcycles is the feeling I get when I open my Harley Davidson Electra Glide up on the open road.
To be frank, I enjoy riding virtually any brand, make, or model motorcycle on the open road. I just happen to presently ride an Electra Glide.
There is no real way to describe the feeling I get when I ride my motorcycle, except to say that it is it is basically like meditation, or even psychotherapy.
If I am stressed out, taking my motorcycle out for a ride will calm me down.
As for me, I am a long distance rider. This means that I put 10-20k miles or more on my motorcycle every year.
I know many guys who bar hop or event hop on their motorcycles, some just ride on the weekends; hell that is all right too. Whatever floats your boat if you know what I mean?
I really like the fact that many women are also riding their own motorcycles these days. The more riders the merrier.
All bikers and motorcyclist all basically share the same kind of experience when riding; we feel the wind on our face and body, we know what it feels like to crack the throttle on a powerful machine that we ride on and not in, and we all experience the utter freedom and thrill of riding a motorcycle on the open road. City traffic kind of sucks, but once we get on the open road, it is the ultimate.
No cager or person who does not ride will ever understand the feeling of riding a motorcycle, and what a rush it really is.
Another added benefit of being a biker and a motorcyclist is that most if not all bikers and motorcyclist are amongst the most gracious, giving, and all around cool people you are ever going to meet.
You might see a tough looking guy in leathers with a big beard, a real scary looking dude, and yet the guy will turn out to be the nicest guy you will ever meet.
Most bikers will bend over backwards to help each other in times of need, in a way no biker or motorcyclist will ordinarily ever get to experience.
I kind of feel sorry for people who do not ride motorcycles; they will never know the experience of going to a motorcycle rally and having 1000’s of instant friends.
So there it is. I am grateful to be a biker.

Welcome, my name is 
The fact is that driving any vehicle requires a certain state of consciousness.
With a bike (not only), you are by yourself, with the alternatively purring or roaring engine and have the unfiltered feeling of the road, the wind, cold, etc, this makes a real good mix !
I think this can be compared to sailing, too.
I was sad bcuz I couldn’t do a wheelie.. Then I met a man who had no motorcycle……………
