Whether you are learning to ride or a seasoned pro, remember to always wear your safety gear. The most important piece of motorcycle gear is Motorcycle Helmets. Quality bike helmets can increase your motorcycling enjoyment.
It all starts with the head gear as I recalled getting ready for my first motorcycle experience. I tried on different motorcycle helmets, full face, open face and hybrid for at least five minutes each as suggested. I was careful to check for any red marks on my face, because that would mean it was too tight for me. I opted for the HJC Helmets and lighter helmet, because I felt it was more comfortable than the heavier ones. I was also told that the more aero-dynamic the motorcycle helmet, the less noise you will have. Like most activities, having the proper gear is the first tip to an enjoyable experience.
I was prepared for my first adventurous ride, so I thought. It was a beautiful day, we even pulled out our favorite tanning lotions. The rider was a seasoned pro, without any doubt he has traveled on many types of roads before. Our goal was to make it to the hills to have lunch at the golf course. While my heart was throbbing, my eyes closed, and me feeling like I will fall off the bike during the ride, I assured him I was "good" the whole way. By the time we made it to the top of the hills, his leather jacket looked as if it had holes from my nails. I wondered how it got there?
It was undeniably adventurous, and even now looking back I have to say, it was more like a thrill, and I am so glad I had the chance to experience it nevertheless.

Awesome! I love riding on a motorcycle. My husband and I had one when we were first married. They are not very practical but not a lot of thrills are "practical." I would rather take the risk then never experience the thrill. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had quite an adventure.

ReplyDeleteMotorcycle ride is exciting, and very fun. I did a few of these when I was younger, and of course, helmet is a must to have for these rides.
ReplyDeleteI like that blue jacket.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blue Monday.
I have never been on a motorcycle and have no plans to do so. My experience with the go-kart on my post today was enough for me.
ReplyDeleteLove the blue jacket! But being an ex-ER/OR trauma nurse...don't think I can get back on a bike ever again..
ReplyDeleteHappy Blue!

There are so many beautiful designs of helmet nowadays, so I wouldn't mind wearing one if I go on a ride..
ReplyDeleteI hate riding on a motorbike because it scares me, but if you have a helmet like this? sure thing I could ride...
ReplyDeleteGreat looking helmets and I love that jacket. Motorcycles are fun and exciting, I like to ride with my hubby.
ReplyDeleteSounds like so much fun! I haven't had a chance to go for a motorcycle ride in ages, maybe DH and I will get a chance to take his father's bike out again this summer -- that would be fun!
