America the Beautiful, California the Breath-Taking

Europe gets a number of motorcycles that America will never see, and they also have roads that as a motorcyclist, can make you feel like you're winding through heaven on Earth. However, you are subject to the fickle European weather, marked by copious amounts of rain and cold throughout the year. A bit of generalization? Maybe, but not too far off I would imagine. Couple that with their tiered licensing system that has you work your way up to the motorcycle of your desires, and it comes to light how good we have it in this side of the planet.


Not every motorcyclist can find paradise like this for their backyard.

As a motorcyclist, I really firmly believe that if you reside in Northern California, then you're home. Virtually year-round of riding available through some of the most gorgeous sceneries in varieties of landscapes; from the ethereal Pacific coastline, through dense Redwood forests, and into the rolling hills of the valleys. And as ill-advised we may have of a licensing system, and the fact that any kid can go into a motorcycle dealer and buy the best and fastest motorcycle available for road use, there is no limit to how and when we can live the life that a motorcyclist only dreams of.

That we can have a choice between toys like these without restriction...
the rest of the world can only be so lucky.

When you're living any motorcyclist's dream life, you never really dream of living anywhere else. :)
