As I Get Older, I Enjoy Riding Alone More

[@cmdr.sypher1820]

64 and riding since 11, mostly alone. Now and then I ride with others but few have the experience or time with the scoots and I ride a bit faster than most. I am most likely to ride my life right to the end alone. Ride safe and let the road guide you to your next destination.

I'm almost 65 and riding since 11 also and worked on motorcycles since I was 20 professional I also prefer to ride alone as now a days too many clowns in vehicles that ride that risk my life so I ride early and when clowns are out I let my lady know I'm heading home .ride safe

I have the same problem. One day I was cleaning my bike and noticed that is was low on gas . So I was going to ride to the gas station a few miles away and fill it up. Hours later I got home with an empty tank again. This happens often.

Home is where your heart is.

I don’t ride with other riders. I enjoy riding alone. Though, my favorite is when my wife is with me. Whether it’s heading somewhere local for lunch or for a trip across the country, we always enjoy each other’s company and have a great time. Along with several other trips last year, my wife and I rode coast-to-coast in a roundabout way (split up into two trips). We rode from Colorado to Key West, and several months later, we rode from Colorado to Los Angeles to visit family. We had such a great time.

I've never ridden with clubs; I respect anyone that does but don't think it's for me. Thank you for checking out the video, much appreciated.

[@manofgod7x7]

As a fellow introvert, I prefer to ride alone. But I'm never alone because I ride with and for Jesus Christ. I'm a beginner rider, just got my first bike a month ago with the intention to not just ride, but to be a light for Jesus on the highway. I was raised in a family that loves bikes. Throughout the years I've picked up on certain things to know when I get my first bike. But having knowledge and actually using it are very different. This is yet another reason I prefer to ride alone. I'm not far enough into riding to ride in groups yet. I rode with 1 person recently but that's all. It was an enjoyable experience, but I felt that sense of wanting to do my own thing, and couldn't at that moment, so I can relate to what you said. For me, riding is about the freedom of the open road as well as spending quality time alone with Jesus while letting my bike spread seeds for Him, due to the way I have it decorated. Being an introvert, I too recharge when I'm alone and with Jesus. Riding is the only time I can truly relax and talk to Him, knowing that no one can hear me but Him. Riding is my "Me Time" so to speak, and also my escape from everything. I doubt I'll be riding in many groups for that reason.

[@2wheels_goodvibes]

That's the beautiful thing about bikes, they are just instruments, and it is up to us to give them a purpose, without it they are just means of transportation. It is great that you found your calling, and a noble one. Ride safe my friend and thank you for checking out my channel.

[@That_Paul_Guy]

Nice video, 2 Wheels. I am also an introvert but I do like riding with my buds. I rode alone from ATL to see friends in Colorado Springs (my wife flew b/c she doesn’t ride 😂) this summer. I don’t consider myself a risky person so riding alone that far was a bit daunting as I would focus on “what if” scenarios. None of them happened, so I was fortunate but now that it’s under my belt, I want to take more trips alone. I’ve ridden for 20 years, mostly with others but as I get into my 50s, I feel that shifting. I won’t avoid taking trips with others if someone has a good idea or wants to join me, but I won’t wait on them to go where I want to go.

[@2wheels_goodvibes]

That was a very long trip, nice!! I get you, I also have the tendency to overthink and expect the worst possible scenarios at times, but the good thing is that it makes us prepare. Keep going strong my friend. Thank you for checking out the video, your support is appreciated.

[@danbarrette9888]

I have a really good friend that I have been friends with for 58 years since I was 5. We both ride and live relatively close to each other but our riding styles are completely different. He likes to start off by stopping for a huge breakfast ride a couple hours then stop for lunch a drinks. Another couple hours of riding then 5 o’clock somewhere happy hour then home. My style of riding is eat my small breakfast at home before I ride and eat a snack when stopping for fuel while stretching the legs. The difference between the two more ride time on my part less intake of food and alcohol. But my buddy is happy the way he rides and that’s what it’s all about. I do wait till the end of the day to have a couple cold pops. Unfortunately because I prefer the way I ride I do ride alone a lot. Oh well I’m happy.

[@2wheels_goodvibes]

That is the most important thing there my friend, that you are both happy doing what you love and the way you love to do it. My riding style aligns with yours, but I do enjoy a breakfast meet up every now and them. Still, when given the choice I rather ride alone.

[@zachredner8]

I've always been more of a "loner" especially when riding my bike. I've been riding over 50 years, and would occasionally ride with friends in small group rides. However, in the last 2 or 3 years, I've "considered" joining two different motorcycle groups. The first one wanted to TELL ME when & where I could wear MY OWN vest. The second one told me that "they have NO Rules, NO Dues, and NO mandatory meetings or rides!' Yeah, that didn't turn out to be TRUE! So, I changed my mind real quick about that! Those "groups & clubs" are ALL about CONTROLLING YOU! And I have NEVER allowed anyone to CONTROL ME, and I'll be damned if I'm gonna start now! Therefore, I now have a patch on my vest that states: NO Clubs, NO Rules, JUST RIDE!" I still ride with friends occasionally on local rides, like the "Blue Ridge Parkway," the "Best of the Snake" and the "Back of the Dragon." And I do a lot of solo riding all by myself, or just with my oldest son. I enjoy those rides much more than riding in large groups!

[@2wheels_goodvibes]

I wish I had the time on the saddle that you have, I found riding later in life, but now I can't imagine my life without it. Those are the same reasons that mace clubs not appealing to me. I love riding because of the freedom it offers me, the club structure is not attractive to me. I respect the people that choose that life, and the brotherhood they display is definitively admirable. I do have friends I ride with occasionally, but the majority of time is solo. I'm happy for you, living the dream man, riding with your son must be something else.

My longest solo ride was about 2500 miles up and around Lake Superior from lower Indiana beautiful ride. Rode to the Keys solo, prefer riding with a buddy that doesn't mind a change in destination. Road to Daytona multiple times last time gas stop in Tampa Bay he said I remember you saying you'd like to ride to Texas I said yeah I remember. Well how about now! We road to Beaumont hung out for mc repair mine at Cowboy HD good experience fyi. then angled up thru states towards home here in SE Indiana. I've retired since then now raising two granddaughters has put a stop to 5,6-day rides for now we ride usually 2-3-day rides when we can. 3 breakdowns 2 flats on softails which really sucked a sensor failure in Texas. 1 flat was on a solo ride. be prepared and enjoy. Ride On, fellow rider.

Thank you for sharing your story, that is the perfect example of an unscripted trip. Way to go, that was a trip full of memories for sure. Thank you for checking out the channel

[@dougm5231]

Do the trip you will not regret it... I take 2 weeks of vacation every summer and spend the whole time on the bike traveling around this great country all by myself. I plan the route for me and what I want to see and do. Not having to worry about what someone else might want to do, call me selfish. I also do weekend trips up to the NC/TN hills (I'm down here in Charleston, SC) a couple times a year. I leave Wednesday for Daytona again all by myself. Can't wait.

[@2wheels_goodvibes]

Awesome man, safe travels to Daytona. I'm skipping Biketober Fest this year, might skip Daytona Bike Week also to go to AZ Bike Week next year instead. But yes, I will do the coast-to-coast summer 2026, for next year is Sturgis & AZ. Thank you for checking out the channel.

[@FrankBonessa]

Just got back from a 2200 mile solo trip to the Oregon and California coasts on my new gsxs1000gt. It's nice to have a riding partner, but I enjoyed it immensely. Some of the most beautiful forests and ocean on earth. Would have taken my HD, but it's a Low Rider and not much room for stuff. I'm 66 and been riding since 1970. Can't get it out of my blood. I'm happiest when I have a set of handlebars in front of me.

[@2wheels_goodvibes]

Lucky man, they are both great bikes. That GSXS is a beautiful beast, must have been a blast to carve the coast in it. I'm turning 51 next month, and the plan is to ride for as long as I can, my happy place is also behind a set of handlebars. I can't wait to ride on the west coast, bucket list item for me. Thank you for checking out the channel. Your support is appreciated.

I would love to do a coast to coast. I don't think my riding partner (wife) is up to it. We ride for hours without saying a word. We enjoy riding with others but are just as happy to ride alone.

[@2wheels_goodvibes]

Yes brother, that’s the dream. I love riding with my wife too, but a coast to coast would be too rough for her. Right now we are in Williamsburg VA, rode here from the Outer Banks on Wednesday. We leave for Fuquay tomorrow morning. It’s been an awesome trip.

[@mkoehler222]

I do ride alone often and love it. Group rides occasionally. And there's the rides with my lady with her riding her Indian Scout and me on my Indian Challenger. I'm floating on those days. We rode to Mooresville North Carolina via Tail of the dragon and Blue Ridge Parkway in August. She is awesome!

[@2wheels_goodvibes]

That is awesome, having your wife as your riding partner is the best, and she rides her own so kudos to her. We had planned to do the Blue Ridge Parkway last week, but because of the hurricane damage to the area we decided to move that trip to next year and went to the Outer Banks instead. I'll be posting that video on Thursday. Thank you for checking out this video, your support is appreciated!

Ky to the west coast and back in 2022 with 4 others. Stayed in hotels only. 7300 miles in 21 days. Great trip but left a lot to be desired. Looking forward to a SOLO ride from Ky to Colorado, Utah, ca, Oregon Washington and Wyoming in summer 2025 to see sights a d. Rational parks I was not able to see with the 2022 group cross country ride. Planing on 3 weeks and camp and the get a hotel every 3 days or so.

I want to do the coastal Coast as well, but I’m really having a struggle with if I wanna do it alone because I know if I do it by myself, I can do it how I want to and not have to worry about anybody else especially being my first time so I think I really want to do it alone

[@Dirk1961-l7y]

That's exactly what I found! I love driving all across Europe and avoid highways (Holland is shit to drive, small, speed bumps and cameras. Flat and boring). But when I leave "EU Bike WEEK last month I planned to do the way back in 3 days. BUT it RAINS! Then I drove in 1 day 1200KM in pouring rain and an average speed of 100Km hour...hohoho. That's is not ment for everybody (I was very happy with the RDRS, it jumps in 3 times at 60mph. And aim 63 yrs old on my Road King Special 2023.....lol 🤘🏽

That is awesome man, rain can be rough at times, but it adds to the experience. That sounded like an epic trip.

[@thanosetsitty1896]

I ride alone to enjoy them twisties by myself. I don’t have to worry about anybody going down or anybody running into me from the back, which is pretty common in group rides. I do however love riding two up with my wife which I wish we would do more often but we don’t. She’s too busy with the grand babies.

[@2wheels_goodvibes]

Well said! I agree 100% I like to rip those turns by myself. But riding with my wife is always special. We just came back from a weeklong trip on the bike, I'll be posting a video on it this Thursday. Thanks for checking out the channel, I appreciate your support. Ride safe my friend!

I would love to ride from the East to the West on two wheels. I have driven by car from East to West. And one day I actually got to see the sun rise over the Atlantic in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and in that same day I got see the sun set over the Pacific on Santa Monica Pier in California. Left Myrtle Beach and had a flight out of Charlotte to Los Angeles that day.

Greetings from North Raleigh. Small groups of 3 or 4 are good, but so is riding solo. Riding with one other, like minded rider, works well also. I’ve done the ride to Sturgis, most of Rt 66, Beartooth Pass - long cross country riding is great. I’ve ridden from here to Americade (Lake George) and back, solo. I’ve ridden nearby states solo. Solo riding gives me time to think, see what I want, stop when and where I want. I’d like to do a solo ride down to Key West and back one of these days. Good video 👍

[@2wheels_goodvibes]

Thank you Familia. I’m with you, a long trip solo on the bike and all the problems fade away. I can’t wait for Sturgis next year, it will be the 85th anniversary too. Also trying to fit Arizona Bike week on the spring, that would be a nice roadtrip. The ride to Key West is fun, getting around Miami & Broward Co can be a pain, traffic there sucks. I did it last year, rode solo to Daytona for Biketoberfest, meet with a friend and then we rode to Key West together. Spent a night there and then rode to Panama City for Thunder in the Bay. Then I went back to Miami for a work meeting and then back home to Fuquay. Really fun trip. Route 66 & Beartooth Pass are bucket list for me.

[@Hogdriver88]

@@2wheels_goodvibes Sturgis was good but we were at the actual rally for only 4 hours - the real star of the show is riding the surrounding area. Rt 66 was a great ride - lots to see along the route but I might avoid the actual beginning in Chicago!

I can't wait for all that great riding around South Dakota. So, is it the traffic around Rt 66 in Chicago the reason to avoid it?
