eveRide ADV: Are Motorcycles Worth the Risk?

Is motorcycling worth the risk? When it comes to riding, or any other decision in life, when considering risk it is also important to consider reward– the reward of the terrifying yet exhilarating contrast that gives life meaning and purpose.

    Every time I started to get lost in your brilliant words and fantastic visuals and feel myself soaring alongside the rider, something would pop up at the edge of the screen and demand that I subscribe or like or something. Seriously detracts from it. If you post a version of this without those I will like/share/everything that shit. Otherwise, really good!

  • PpachecoE

    Dude, I’ve been deeply touched by this video. I agree every one of your words.Greetings from Santiago, Chile.

  • Himaro

    Dude, someone just posted this on CarThottle and I love it. This is why I ride.Added to my playlists and subbed.

  • SupaNautica

    I just ask a question in 888Crew aka New Motovlogger Network. The question was:What’s the best Motovlog / motorcycle video you have seen in 2015 and this was shared from one of your fans, so good work mate. Currently watching, just wanted to tell you what’s up. Enjoying the video btw, peace

  • Krusty's

    Thank you for this moving video, for me it captures the essence of life and truly living.

  • SuperMotard92

    Thank you. Watching this video, sealed the deal for me on getting my bike. I regret nothing from riding.

  • Shane Gaston

    A good friend of mine showed me this when I lost my best friend when he was hit, it’s so hard to cope but this keeps me going. I can’t thank you enough for the motivational words. This is 100% what we do and could not be summed up better.

  • skapemaster2

    I watch this video on a weekly basis and it gives me chills every time I love it! It applies to more than motorcycle riding too!

  • TheFlyingSwede

    This is great. I think it applies not only to riding, but to the many ways in which we take risks in order to reap the great experiences life has to offer.

  • My Triggaz

    Wow, that is a prefect way to explain it. Based off this one vid, you earned my sub.

  • Jeff Noël

    Almost a year later and I still link this video to anyone asking me why I’m hooked to the motorcycle community.

  • Stephen Rumer

    YES!!!! riding these machines is always worth it! It is the escape from the normal everyday life we get tied up in…

  • michael Taylor

    Best video you have ever created i show this to everyone who ask me why do you take risks or why cant i do something safer without the possibility getting hurt its because if you sit back and watch videos of what you wish you were doing instead of actually going out and doing it what is the point of living great video everide

  • Shadrach Max

    Thank you for making this video and all of your others. A single tear of Joy and Inspiration has fallen from my eye hole. Awesome job!

  • franklinjokertogo Franklin

    Broly is a monster. He is strong Frieza,Cell ,and Buu would have no chance against this physico

  • JamJamOnWheels

    Thanks for putting that together…lots of things I often think but you actually put them into words

  • MotoGoneMini

    Why can’t i find the other video of “Why ride a motorcycle”? I liked that one more, it was more of an emotional connection to me. Anyway this video is still great but can you link me to the original video?

  • Villa Marina JC

    Thank you. I’d like to write more, but, your video made want to go ride right this moment. Happy trails.

  • Owen U

    Thank you for making this…It’s probably my favorite motorcycle video to date, so I decided to show my parents this. (I’m 16 looking to get a bike soon) They literally just laugh at me and think this is ridiculous, and it really pisses me off… I just don’t know what I can do to make them not think of motorcycling as a joke. Anyways, I’m not sure what I’m trying to say but thanks for making this.

  • alex akkers

    Talking about life and death, choices and risks, satisfaction and regret. Is it worth it? I also think yes. Bravo!

  • Chris Jelen

    Sitting at home with a flat tire… watched this again for at least the 20th time since ya posted it.. and still I get all excited.. then choked up… then I swear there is a lot of dust in here, ’cause NO I am not crying!!!
