I got to ride a motorcycle today.
It's been since I was, oh, eight or nine since I've been on a motorcycle. My grandparents own a Honda Gold Wing, and it used to be the neatest thing I'd ever seen.
13 years later, a friend of mine owns a Honda Street Bike. I finally talked him into taking me out on it. Strapped myself into a helmet, hopped on behind him, and we went for a ride.
Despite the heat from the exhaust, despite the 30 mph winds that day, despite the 90 degree weather, it was awesome. A chance to feel true power, with nothing to hide me from the energy of nature.
And even though my face felt like a peeled grape afterwards, it still rocked.
Besides, women go to spas and pay lots of money to make their faces feel like peeled grapes. I got a facial for free. ;)
