To get my butt up off the sofa to get a good calorie burn and have a great time doing it. Getting from point A to point B has never been more life affirming. It's great to be able to stop anywhere anytime to appreciate the beauties of nature without regard to having to find a parking space. To become one with the road or the trail. For the spiritual connection. Did I mention it's a cheap form of transportation good for the environment? For the mental disciplines that build confidence both on and off the road.
