Ten percent of Army and Marines own motorcycles

July 16th, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

 Just imagine that one in ten Army and Marine personel are actually bike riders. Maybe the same thrill of being shot at and riding a motorcycle have something in common?

Adrenaline is a amazing high and certainly can beat many type of drugs out there but the problem with adrenaline is that you must constantly find ways to kick it in. 

Combat and motorcycles have that ability in common because both can have long periods of inactivity but then a surge of excitement and the release of adrenaline. But unlike combat, adrenaline rushes on motorcycles can cause something of a addiction and a increase of risky riding to be able to tap the adrenaline.

But who knows, maybe the Marines and Army riders just like motorcycles because they are one of the ultimate expressions of freedom and they certainly have given alot to ensure our type of freedom.  Either way, we welcome all that want to ride and hope that they make it home in order to get some freedom on the back of a motorcycle.
