    Admittedly, the scenery does make me miss CA. There are a few parts in there that look like the Uvas reservoir.

    Nice Dainese/AGV get up! Footage looks great, well shot. Could use a few more exciting twisties thrown in there though, get the heart pumping a lil bit more

    I don't understand how some people can not like riding.

    Re: Escapism

    This perfectly captured the reason why I ride... to remove all my trivial worries. When I twist the throttle and sweep that crap out of my brain for an hour or so, the really important stuff becomes obvious... and the small stuff just fades away.

    Yep...when people ask why, from now on I'll show them this.

    On the best of these rides, the experience is truely meditative...

    Re: Escapism

    Ahhh ... that felt almost as good as the real thing.

    It's often overlooked that we're living the dream. Take a look in the eyes of someone you're sharing the road with sometime. They're often obviously jealous of our hobby.

    On a side note, did anybody else notice the headlights towards the very end of the video? They disappear as he flicks through the turns. That's not exactly comforting when it's our most visible feature.
