Dude, the risk of rising a motorcycle doesn't set of a chain reaction endangering possibly thousands of people or more. Just stop trying to justify your desicion with arguments like that

It puts other people at danger as well as potentially hurting loved ones if you die.

I'm not saying it's the same thing. I'm saying the benefits don't outweigh the risks either. There's no good reason not to just have a car instead. Except your own personal enjoyment. But we take risks all the time.

I'll wear a mask while regularly going out as if nothing's going on but if I do two things, where will I be able to get all of the normal that I'm used to???

It's still on a smaller scale, and even if it wasn't it's no valid excuse

It's not an excuse. I am saying I'll take the risks. There's no excuse about that.

I'm just pointing out this cost/risk analysis applies to everything you do. The risk of a one time visit during a pandemic vs a lifetime of riding a motorcycle... Not so sure the one risk is so much higher than the other like you think.

Sure, I was speaking more to the general public.

If I were you I'd be going to see my family too. You're right that everything is risk/reward, and this deep into it those numbers are fluctuating.

There's nothing rational about the "if you don't wear a mask you're killing grandma" line of thinking either.

Actually you’re right. What’s your IQ?

Unless she gets it and dies and wouldn’t have if you wore a mask which happens everyday.

You couldn’t wait a year? Really? Seems like such a tiny sacrifice.
