I have owned a few bikes before but after I was in a hit and run in 2016 I decided the risk wasn't worth it. I owned two bikes after the hit and run but I didn't enjoy it in the same way.

3 years later from when I sold my last bike, I bought my first new vehicle ever, a 2023 KLRs.

Stay safe, you can't live your life scared but always be cautious. Super excited for all the adventures ahead.

I agree. When I moved across the country several years ago and stopped engaging in my more adventurous hobbies, I developed some really unhealthy behaviors trying to fill that hole. Now I do stuff that's actually pretty safe, but feels adventurous, like rock climbing, and riding responsibly.
