In this weeks video, I discuss the benefits of learning to ride a motorcycle as an adult. I started riding in my early 40’s and it’s been one of the best decisions of my life. The experience you’ve gained thru life will have a positive impact on your experience when it comes to riding. I also give some tips and advice to consider when starting your journey into this great hobby!

Hello all
Trucker Dave here
Always loved bikes but the people around me didn't, well at 46 i bought my first bike a honda ape 50cc .lol, did my cbt and moved to a cb125f, now waiting to do my mod 1+2 to be able to play with the big boys toys, don't tell anyone but have also bought a honda hornet 600cc to practice on also….sssshhhhh👍
I just started riding 4 months ago. I took my MSF course 5 years ago in 2015 and got my mc endorsement on my DL. I had been on YouTube for over 3 years studying different type bikes and narrowing down to the one that fits me. I finally got a 2005 Honda VTX1800, that had only 13k and was garage kept, at an incredibly reasonable price. In fact the owner knocked off $200.00 because I drove 3 plus hours to pick it up out of state. I own it free and clear. It fits me like a glove. Although it's a big bike, I stay physically fit and I'll be 65 y/o in November.
It helps me unwind and channel my energy. I'm not getting much bedroom action these days as when I was younger, so this helps to channel that energy. It's not a substitute, just a release valve. I also watch a lot of YouTube m/c training and info to keep me fresh and informed. I am selfish. My wife wants to know when I'm getting her a helmet. I told her I don't presently feel comfortable putting someone else on the back at this early stage. Also, I like being on it by myself, and to myself.
2036. There will be no more gas engines on this year so there is a Time line on getting a more cycle
Great video. I am 34 and just started for all the reasons you mentioned. 👍
Got my first bike, a Honda Rebel, at age 74. Practiced in my neighborhood and on back roads, then got my motorcycle license. Age 75 now, and ride every chance I get.
Had a bandit 600 20 year ago just got back on a bike after 20 years without one.
Yea another bandit 600 at 52 years old.
Well said my man.
Thank you !
Wow I’m 46 and just purchased a 07 Honda Shadow 750. Had my endorsement for 15 years but never owned a bike … I’m rusty but it’s truly a great feeling … these comments have me smiling
I bought my first motorcycle 2 weeks ago. Coming up on 300 miles on my Honda monkey. I’m 41 years old.
