Motorcycles – Are You For Or Against?

I have been wanting a motorcycle for as long as I can remember and every time I mention it to Melinda she immediately tells me NO. I am assuming she is afraid that I might crash and hurt myself and she is trying to avoid a phone call to a motorcycle accident attorney.

In a way I can’t say that I blame her because I see serious accident attorney commercials all the time that mention lawyers all over the country even Birmingham, Alabama lawyers. I’m assuming they deal with more than just motorcycle accidents, but I would guess they get their fair share of motorcycle cases. When I watch shows like Sons of Anarchy it makes me want to get a bike. Not because I want to be a motorcycle outlaw or anything, but I can imagine the freedom you feel just cruising down the highway on a motorcycle.

What is funny is Melinda is ok with letting Sabreena, our 16 year old daughter ride on a motor cycle with our brother in law but won’t let me get one for myself, NOT FAIR. Again, I sort of understand her reasoning but really wish she would just trust me and know that I would do everything in my power to stay safe while out on the road. Maybe this post is a plea to Melinda in the hopes that she might change her mind but I doubt she ever will. Melinda is extremely passionate about me not being able to own two things: a gun and a motorcycle.

Now that I put both of those together maybe her fear is me becoming a motorcycle outlaw, LOL.

What are your feelings about motorcycles? Are you for or against them?
