I have always wanted to learn to ride. I'd enjoy touring, not everyday, in the city, driving. CA drivers are by far the worst and heavy traffic. But recently a bunch of us from school got hooked back up on facebook. One friend's wife had just died of ALS and he was beginning to pursue a dream of many travels on his new motorcycles, joined a cycle club, was posting photos of his trips online for us all to enjoy etc. I was very shocked one day to sign on and find out that he was killed when their cycle group was trying to merge onto a highway at a bad intersection. I'm generally not afraid to try anything new but I'm not sure I want to trust my life with the other crazy drivers.
