While it may seem more convenient to drive a car or truck, considering the unpredictable weather, the possibility of extreme temperatures, and the mess a helmet can make of your hair, motorcyclists around the world will tell you that there are advantages to riding a bike that make exposure to the elements and other issues worth it.
For example, motorcycles are smaller and therefore more fuel-efficient. On top of that, it is easier to navigate traffic and find parking for smaller vehicles, and it’s hard to get smaller than a bike.
That said, there is another consideration that is highlighted regularly in the news, whenever an accident on the road involving a motorcycle happens: the danger involved.
