    I sure hope the fellow who gave you that bike gets to see this. To see what a wonderful gift he gave and how it continues to give. A motorcycle is not just a vehicle. It IS a powerful being, and those that get that, get it. And to those that don't, my condolences.
    RIDE SAFE MY FRIENDS.

    ¨-where bikes can take you¨... Specially for all of us who are dealing with some mental health disorder, who can not find a place in the world due to misconception and lack of general knowledge to deal with such a disease, bikes can take us to places that only were a far far memory of simpler or happier times, and actual places that makes us feel simple, ... and happy again, not only the riding itself but also the community attach to bikes, and the road, the freedom and the scenery.... Ride safe Everyone!!

    2013 my 2001 Monster had a failure.
    Hate her for 3 years.
    2016 bring em to dealer, nobody find the failure. Bought spareparts monster. Changed motor + electric.
    2017 Monster fall down during preloading after platecheck. The Tank was damaged.
    2018 I went with her at World Ducati Week. I realised to late that there was a leftturning car. So i had my first hard accident during a ride. Tank and many other things were damaged, but not me.
    2019 My Monster sleeps alive in my Garage.

She says to me, if I learn then you don't have to do it. She loves to help daddy in the garage. Thank you for the inspiration.

    I am the same when I ride alone. No distractions of mind...just the road in front of me. I still enjoy the social pleasures of riding with groups of my friends... but I most enjoy riding alone or with just my Brother. We take turns 'leading' and just glide along at the pace the road seems to ask of us... Sometimes quite a hustle, and sometimes almost like a ballet dance...

  • @ArmenianLifewithMitch
    @ArmenianLifewithMitch 5 років тому +1

    Wow, what an amazing story of a young woman 'finding herself'' through motorcycling. Alicia, I'm a 62 year old male and you've inspired me so much! You've discovered the essence of true motorcycling. As a teenager I was inspired to ride by the cult TV series: 'Then came Bronson'. The images of a life spent on a motorcycle were indelibly printed on my mind because of that show. I knew that's what I was looking for...a sense of freedom on 2 wheels...at one with bike and nature...alone but not alone. At 17 I bought a little Honda 125 road bike, then a 380 Suzuki triple, then a 750 Suzuki triple etc etc. I had a 'soul connection' with each one. It's been 13 years since I've owned a bike, but you've inspired me to ride again. Thank you, God bless you and stay safe. Mitch

  • @robertedwards7430
    @robertedwards7430 6 років тому +2

    Her story is so inspiring. She really "gets" it when it comes to bikes. For me it's always been about losing myself in the moment when it comes to riding. It's like a sort of tunnel vision where all your stress and anxiety are pushed outside of that tunnel. To me it's akin to surfers who describe being in a wave, surrounded by water, "the tube". I really think Ducati should give her a 1299 Panigale R. I can't think of a better ambassador for Ducati than this woman.

This video and Moto Lady reminds me of why I got into motorcycle in the first place, I love bikes not because they can go fast, but because they are cool!
