A person who is fortunate enough to have both money and leisure time often decides to buy a motorcycle and travel over North America.
There are few better feelings than the one you get when you have the wind in your face, the freedom of the open road and the beauty of America combined for your personal enjoyment.
You can go where you want, when you want and just enjoy the pleasure the trip brings.
Exploring the country by motorcycle is even more appealing now because even the largest bikes get far better gas mileage than almost every automobile on the road today.
One or two people can travel a very long distance on one small tank of gas and that will certainly hold your travel costs down.
The excitement of a bike can't be beat by any car either.
It is breathtaking when you are riding a motorcycle on the mountains as even the most beautiful mountain range looks better from the seat of a bike.
Since the overall view is less obstructed as compared to the one from inside a car the drive feels more intimate as one drives along the slopes and curves in the road.
And it is much better with the feeling of a gentle breeze.
Of course, riding any motor vehicle requires a bit of caution.
When you approach a stop, gear down to save wear and tear on the gears.
Watch for obstacles in the road or falling rocks, even if you do wear a helmet! Motorcycle riders should also invest in some good protective gear just in case.
And since it can get windy and chilly on the road, especially at mountain altitudes, leather jackets can provide a substantial amount of wind protection.
All of the world has more appeal to each of your five senses from the back of a motorcycle.
Not only do you see and hear much more, you actually feel the imperfections of the asphalt, the roar of the engine, and wind and weather on your skin.
You do not merely see snow capped peaks, you become part of them.
Purchasing a motorcycle is not an overly expensive proposition.
As a mode of transportation, it is cheaper than a comparable automobile, new or used.
Even though you can walk off the lot with a new motorcycle without dropping too much cash, a used one can be significantly less and affordable for just about everyone.
It is always best to get any used bike checked out thoroughly by a mechanic before the sale is final, of course.
