Why Motorcycling?

You ask me why I do motorcycling
and why I go for those long trips?
You ask me why I get out of my comfort zone
and roam around over the dusty roads ?

Because I want to move out of my zone,
to be my own.
I want to leave my old abode,
and take a fresh road.

Then why a motorbike? Why not a car or a jeep?
Because there is a saying I heard

"the four wheels move the body,

but the two wheels move the soul."

I ignite my freedom,
by a spark in the bike.
and ride it with my soul,

into my dreams.

From each beat of the bike,
I hear  my heart beat.
From the each passing breeze,
I feel  my life breath.

Exploring the world outside,
I explore the soul inside
In search of the new places out there,
I find out the new person in here.

That why I ride my friend

for the roads that I always miss,
for the dreams that I always seek,
to feel the breath, that I always skip,
to find my soul, hiding inside deep ...

I do Motorcycling :)
