When riding a motorcycle, you become a part of the scene. In a car you just watch the landscape pass by through your window, like watching television. You're just another viewer. But when you ride, you see things you wouldn't notice before. You feel the wind, smell the air, and notice the whole buzz of life around you. The power lines and rolling hills that once seemed mundane, take on a bright new meaning. You're just as part of the landscape as they are. Your sense of presence is revived.
