Quotes about riding a Motorcycle
No matter how different riders are in terms of religion, gender, language, race, or skin colour, they all enjoy the culture of motorcycling. It’s a fact that riding a motorcycle is fun.
I found some good quotes about motorcyclists and thought I’d share them with you. This is a great thing to share on World Motorcycle Day, which is held every year on June 21.
“Riding a motorcycle is like using drugs, but it doesn’t clog your arteries, mess up your brain, or send you to rehab. Also, it’s perfectly legal (as long as you have a licence).” Yes, I came up with that, haha.
