Watched it and no. I was expecting more. Not only the answer to the question: "Why we ride?" 

Also it is more like for Muricans.

Guess we all ride for diferent reasons and diferent thrills. No matter what you ride , if you enjoy it , keep riding.

I'm a bit too old now but I wish I'd learned to ride motorbikes when I was younger.

You are never too old.

 

Go out and Give Er !

True.

 

Video made in USA - most likely - so having that slant is understandable.

 

The point is that there are almost as many reasons to ride a bike as there are riders. Young, old, sportbike, cruiser, dirt, etc.

 

Different strokes for different folks - as the song says.

just loved seing the old lady raving, go for it grandma !

But it didn't explain EXACTLY why? For that you have to ask a dog who likes to stick his head out of the window of a moving vehicle. 
 
Or understand that when riding the level of concentration should be so high that one cannot think about anything else so it frees the mind, which is why some psychiatrists recommend riding as a therapy.

After many years riding (im 49) i still cant explain EXACTLY why i enjoy it so much.  Maybe a form of "release". A thrill .  An old Honda strap-line quoted  "You meet the nicest people on a Honda".  Guess thats still true of all bike makes.

For me, it's a simple case of leaving the world behind me for a few hours :)

For myself - the same.

 

If I have a problem to sort out - or a course of action to decide upon - a nice long ride seems to provide the answer.

 

I am not even thinking the problem thru - it just seems that at the end of the ride the answer presents itself.

 

Magic ??

I watched it and it was ok.  No offence to any Americans here but the slow motion images with subtle music with the occasional American flag going by was a little typical for me.  I was hoping for more.

 

This is far better!

One of the best videos I've seen.

Yeah seeing all that dirt fun riding kind of made me wish I had one
Some of my best bike fun times I ever had were in the dirt

I love low speed rides too and satisfy that need in Bangkok traffic:lol:
