It’s All Part Of The Ride (Biker Philosophy)

 

Some days the weather is perfect, and it seems like the day was made for riding. On days like that, it’s almost immoral not to get out on the road and spend some time in the saddle. It’s as if life its-self were beckoning you to get out and embrace the things that lay ahead of you.

Then some days it rains. Some days the sky pisses on you so hard it makes you wonder if life has it in for you and wants you to know it. On those days the road is uninviting, but life doesn’t stop for you just because the road is in a bad way.

So what can you do? You adjust your speed and take precautions, but you keep going.

You knew these days would come when you signed up for the ride, and crying about it in the middle of it all won’t do any good anyway.

Just remember these three things to keep your ride in perspective:

1. Rainy roads lead to sunny roads.

2. The summer would not be so sweet were in not for the winter.

3. It’s all part of the ride.
