Racing hearts
When my motorcycle-racing boyfriend proposed on my 40th birthday, I couldn't tell if it was a joke or a dare. Then I risked all for a life at the track.
By Ann Bauer [2006-10-11]

  • Get a motorcycle

    There are a million risks in motorcycling...and yet life is risk. I think people turn to drugs and alcohol because they have not figured out how to fulfill the need for managed risk.

    There is an absolutely wonderful article about this subject in Motorcyclist magazine published a couple of years ago. If you try to suppress this outlet in your mate, his spirit will shrink.

    Take the motorcycle safety course and see if you can join him in this adventure. I never liked riding on the back of anyone's bike, so this is one reason I took the course myself (I am also a mother). Now, I don't think I could live without my motorcycle..
