One of the few.....

by Larry Supina

 

 

I've been around for over 100 years

I have conquered every terrain on this planet

I've served your nation in time of war, disaster and peace

Only a few appreciate me

 

 

I am both practical and frivolous

I am a contrast of simplicity and complexity

I am needy of your time yet thrifty with your resources

Only a few understand me

 

 

I ruthlessly punish stupidity

I will be taken lightly only at your expense

I am intolerant of mindlessness and drunkenness

Only a few befriend me

 

 

I despise arrogance and bravado

I will not comply with excessive force

I have no issue with crushing your ego or shaming you in public

Only a few can accept me

 

 

I will expose your shortcomings

I demand your patience and attention

I will not compensate for your inexperience

Only a few can tolerate me

 

 

I will not coddle you in luxury

I will expose you to the elements

I will teach you to prepare, endure and overcome

Only a few are willing

 

 

I look to you to calm me when I'm upset

I require a steady hand when I become nervous

I am sensitive to my environment and expect the same of you

Only a few will risk me

 

 

I will, in time, become one with you

I will move at the speed of your thoughts

I will turn routine into adventure, boredom into excitement

Only a few can meld with me

 

 

I will introduce you to a new family of friends

I will reward you with self-confidence and skill

I will show you the world as you have never seen it before

Only a few reap the rewards

I am a motorcycle, are you one of the few?

I like it as well, and sent it to the local paper. People reading it might be more sympathic to us riders.

I have a nephew that is on his third day of boot camp in San Diego, probably why I had that theme in my mind. Please feel free to pass it on to any and everyone, I appreciate the exposure. I may have a piece coming up in Cycle World soon, just talked to them last night.

 

Hey Tx2Sturgis, definetly gotta hook up and down a cold one, tied up this weekend but soon, I'm kinda of a Hooters and Hummers guy, but I know the places you mentioned.
