How to own a motorcycle
It made me
free! 
"One of the best things I've ever done for myself."
How I did it: Took the motorcycle safety course, got a neat little Honda 650, and rode everywhere, some of the best years of my life. Motorcycles aren't for everyone, but if they're for you, well, it's like nirvana. Sitting on the back ain't close.
I don't have a bike now, but will get another one day when I'm out of school. Believe it.
Lessons & tips: Motorcycle safety classes, and ride like everyone's out there to kill ya (best advice I got from other bikers).
