Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Motorcycling 101

Share:
-Kindness and respect
-Experiences from my travels to all the countries (30) and U.S. states (37) I've visited, as well as from living in New York City for 10 years
-A willingness to hang out, have a good time, and do most anything. Or, a happiness to keep to/entertain myself depending on your preferences/schedule

Love learning, and would probably be excited to absorb anything you can teach me
