Maybe I need to clarifywhat have you given back to motorcycling? Any time as an instructor, or participation in Ride for Sight, etc.?

Being an instructor would be sweet. really just have gone on runs for certain causes. like my brother.. he has cancer and a disease called kappalight chain protein deposition disease.. I have just been trying to do fund raisers for that.. insurance doesnt pay for everything you know, and he has one of the rarest diseases you will come across
If i could give something to the sport i would.. i dont do track days i am more of an everyday street rider... but dont get me wrong.. i do ride hard.

How about contributing toys or participating in toy runs at christmas? Collections for a fellow rider or their family when they're down? That sort of thing...

Advice counts. That is sharing knowledge... good for motorcycling.

Advice, training friends who want to get into riding (and making them take MSF courses), helping them find 1st bikes that won't eat them alive, mechanical assistance for both friends and strangers, oh, and I rebuild old bikes that aren't loved anymore so they can get back on the road...
