I'm sorry. 

I'm sorry for the noise.  The racket.  The ear-piercing clutch.  The mind-numbing exhaust. 

I'm sorry for riding too fast on the street sometimes.  I'm always sorry for riding too slowly on the track. 

I'm sorry for the occasional parking lot wheelie.  And to the wheelie-ers, I'm sorry that my wheelies aren't better.

I'm sorry for buzzing you like I was Tom Cruise in Top Gun while you're on your bicycle, in your car, while you're walking your dog, or pushing the baby. 

I'm sorry that your kids want a bike as soon as they get home after seeing me on mine. 

I'm sorry for the way my boots squeak.  I'm sorry for how my leather pants squeak.  I'm sorry that my jacket squeaks.  I'm sorry for having really disruptive attire. 

I'm sorry for parking on the sidewalk.  Also for riding on the sidewalk.  And for not getting off the f*cking sidewalk when you asked me to. 

I'm sorry for having a carbon footprint the size of Texas and for liking the smell of race gas. 

I'm sorry for the perpetual hill of tires in the backyard.

I'm sorry for touching buses when I pass them. 

I'm sorry for being more interesting than you, just because I have a motorcycle.  And I'm sorry that I find it difficult to talk about much else. 

I'm sorry for lying to you about riding mom, but I did it for the right reasons. 

I'm sorry for being a bad patient. 

I'm sorry that so many of my friends have ended up bump-starting, working on, and coming to get me and my bike from the far ends of the earth so many times.   

I'm sorry to the cars that have to wait while I split lanes.  I'm sorry to the officers out there who hate it when I say "split" lanes. 

I'm sorry for getting so many tickets.  Boy, am I sorry about that. 

I'm sorry that my hairdresser's creativity is challenged whenever I say, "It needs to work with a helmet."

I'm sorry for not taking my helmet off in Safeway.  In 7-11.  In just about any establishment where I feel the dress code or my length of stay will permit it. 

I'm sorry that you don't get to see the sky at night with nothing obstructing you from a thousand twinkling gems overhead and the moon smiling down at you at 100 mph on a deserted road.

I'm sorry that you don't get to ride through the leaves and watch them tumble over your shoulders like orange and yellow angry fairies on a day like today.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I don't see the need to be sorry for any of those things. (except maybe getting the tickets)  Your list is like a modern motorcyclists list of Conans "What is good in life"  Great List!

Since it's a training video I can show it at work for motorcycle safety.
