I still want a retirement plan for my future but uncertainty over nuclear warfare and the end of democracy in the US played a role into me spending a chunk of my money on a motorcycle, which pushes aside the fear of the future into a present mix of joy and adrenaline.

Not to mention convenient transport in a Mad Max-style apocalypse, until the fuel runs out.

Well being a motorcyclist on the roads today may mean you don't need a retirement plan after all!

(in all seriousness, stay safe out there, I've lost too many friends to careless drivers who don't look for bikes before doing dumb shit on the roads)
