I have a motorcycle. It's a Harley-Davidson. Immediately, everyone is picturing a large and unpleasant looking bearded man riding a huge, noisy, vibrating, chrome bedazzled air cooled motorcycle without a helmet from one bar to the next.

My harley makes about as much noise as a Toyota Camry. I wear full protective gear when riding it, including a bright and attention-getting helmet. It doesn't get ridden to bars, because drinking interferes with my motorcycle addiction.

The large and unpleasant looking bearded man part is accurate, though.

I never understood the " I'm so badass I'm going to ride without the only thing that can prevent my skull from cracking like an egg" I guess live fast die young, but in the event you don't die the only way we will know where your mouth is, it will be following the feeding tube.

Anyways safe rides dude.

It has been my long-standing belief that a motorcycle helmet can prevent an accident. I've had too many things hit my visor while riding. Imagine taking a june bug in the eye with nothing but a set of oakleys for protection.

The bug in the eye is a classic, I just wanted to feel the air on my face.
