This is the comedian Mike DeStefano who passed away a little while back. He speaks of his wife and the dream to own a motorcycle. Keep some tissues close by and dont allow the kids to listen as he says the F word a bit.

wonderful story. I remember seeing Mike DeStefano on Last Comic Standing. Really liked his sense of humour. Had no idea he died in March

Thanks for the post.

My wife asked "is that what riding is like for you"?

I didn't answer immediately. I was trying to reword what Mike said to fit my way of describing it. After attempting to start my sentence twice, I just gave in and looked at her and said.....Yea. Exactly. Every time.

She glanced over at the 3 bikes just outside the window. She said "That explains a lot"

I'm glad I get it. I'm blessed she lets me.

Very touching. I work in the health care field and am reminded daily of the process of dying and just how short life truly is. There's a passage in the bible that say's it's but a vapor. I get it and thats part of why I ride, to feel the freedom he discribed and to enjoy life to it's fullest. Thanks for sharing that.

Wow, I put it on pause at the very beginning to knock out a 'honey do.' Good thing because I wouldn't have been able to pause in the middle...great story.
