Riding a motorcycle every day might actually keep your brain functioning at peak condition, or so says a study conducted by the University of Tokyo. The study demonstrated that riders between the age of 40 and 50 were shown to improve their levels of cognitive functioning, compared to a control group, after riding their motorcycles daily to their workplace for a mere two months.

Scientists believe that the extra concentration needed to successfully operate a motorcycle can contribute to higher general levels of brain function, and it’s that increase in activity that’s surely a contributing factor to the appeal of the motorcycles as transportation. It’s the way a ride on a bike turns the simplest journey into a challenge to the senses that sets the motorcyclist apart from the everyday commuter. While the typical car-owning motorist is just transporting him or her self from point A to point B, the motorcyclist is actually transported into an entirely different state of consciousness .
Riding a motorcycle is all about entrance into an exclusive club where the journey actually is the destination.

5th Annual Biker Fusion Party Benefits Soldiers Angels…
Fundraiser March 15th Hosted by Dave Perewitz, Paul Yaffe and Steve Broyles

(February 21, 2012–Daytona, FL) When event promoters Carrie Repp of R&R
Promotions and Ken Conte of Rise Above Consulting first launched their
‘Biker Fusion’ fundraiser, they had no idea how much the motorcycle industry
and other enthusiasts would take to the idea of coming together for a party
during Daytona Beach Bike Week that would benefit a great cause. Five years
later and over 60 thousand dollars raised, both Conte and Repp wouldn’t have
it any other way and are now organizing their 5th Annual Biker Fusion Party
on Thursday, March 15, 2012 at 7:00 PM at the Doghouse Bar and Grill on Main
Street in Daytona. The fundraiser will once again benefit Soldiers’ Angels,
a volunteer-led non-profit that provides aid and comfort to active
servicemen and women of the U.S. military as well as veterans and their
families. Soldiers’ Angels go to great lengths to demonstrate care and
concern for those who fight daily for our freedom and safety.
