Default Things that go well with motorcycling

Somethings just go well together such as Touring, love of scenery, photography and motorcycles.

Today I went Geocaching on the bike. It enhanced the ride.

So what do others get up to on the bike?.

Going to work, coming home from work.

Seems to relieve some stress.

Alternatively, motorcycling and women in leather seek to go together quite well!

This.

My day (and night) shifts can be extremely hectic - the ride home helps me clear work from my mind and prepare me for the domestic chaos waiting behind the front door

Things that go well with motorcycles, cleanser your brain, it doesn't matter how stressed you are you will feel better after going out on your bike. I have never been to a psychiatrist, but I imagine that a bike is better than they could ever be.

When I started the topic I wasn't thinking of shapely ladies in tight red leathers but I do see you point

New friends. I have people I met not through here, but because they came to Lord's for a photo shoot, and while hanging around it turns out they own a bike or several and before you know it you're chatting away about great roads, different bikes, your next trip.

Suddenly it doesn't matter that they are a pop star or Hollywood actor and you're just the photography manager, the fact you both love bikes breaks down those barriers. So I'd say what goes best with biking is other bikers, no matter what their age, sex, wealth or nationality.

Definitely agree with the ride to work sentiments.
Fortunately I have 4 fun routes to get to and fro.
