Hi Ron Thank you for writing! I've been thinking about Arlo's message concerning motorcycles and how I'm too leery to ride any longer (though I did ride for years and years) due to the increase in traffic. How odd (I think to myself) that I think nothing of walking into the remote mountains for days on end with no weapons and little food where one careless slip could mean my life yet I'm too nervous to ride. I guess it has to do with control. I don't mean that I can control the weather but if I prepare properly (sub-zero sleeping bag, long johns, an extra lighter, great peace of mind) I have no fear whatsoever out there in the wilderness. Big cats, wolves, and bears don't bother me a bit. Snakes? No problem. On the other hand, that old lady talking on her cell phone who nearly rear-ended me scares the hell right out of me. I have no doubt that I could survive indefinitely in those mountains, if push came to shove. But on the highway? Not a chance. > >It sounded like a part of you perished on that mountain >And another born. That's why I go.
