It certainly does something to your brain & nervous system!

I often get physically unwell when I have to deal too much with that shit, then also I feel great when I'm somewhere sane, like on two wheels going through a big city in Asia ;-)

There is no room for self deception, wishful thinking, irrational emotions taking charge or any of that shit on a motorbike...

Sailing used to fill that function for a couple of decades, hopefully I'll get back to that sometime too!
