I tend to get really passionately into things from time to time. Sometimes they stick and I remain obsessed forever. Other times though, I live and breath it for a week or so and then it fizzles out and dies. One thing is for certain though, when I get obsessed with something, I spend way too much time researching it and fantasizing about it. Hell, I even dream about it.
So what’s the newest thing on my mind? A motorcycle ride across the country.
Here’s what I know so far:
- It would have to last at least a month. Hopefully two.
- I would definitely need a friend to come along.
- I would camp everyday… except a couple.
- I want to see a million things, and imagine it being at least 10,000 miles.
- I’m not interested in looking cool and popping wheelies’, but I’ll need a really comfy bike.
- I don’t own a motorcycle.
- I have absolutely no idea how to ride a motorcycle.
So I’ve been working through all the necessary steps, scenarios and half-answers to try and satisfy all of the above.
I’m really excited about it. But I wonder if its really that practical of a thing to do right now. I mean, I’ve never even been on a motorcycle before. Maybe this is one of the obsessions that will quickly fade? Or maybe, just maybe, I will start to ride motorcylces… When else in my life could I do such an adventure?
Keep tuning in to see how long this obsession plays out…
