Trying to keep •B A L A N C E D•

Balance.... it can be found virtually everywhere. Between work and home life. Nature versus Nurture. Online and off. And, of course, balancing life on two wheels.

With recent events happening in our country and around the world, it seems as though our balance might be off.... Do we open ourselves up which can lead to vulnerability? Or secure ourselves while shutting others out? It's a fine line to balance on and no easy answers.

That doesn't mean we just quit all together. If it's one thing I've learned while balancing on two wheels - you've got to keep moving forward!

And that's one thing you'll notice about Bikers: we put our heart into it and work hard until it - whatever it is - is fixed. Obviously that trait doesn't apply to just Bikers, but Americans as well - that's one of the things that makes this country of ours a good place to live.

So we will keep moving forward, trying to regain our balance. Americans before us have succeeded achieving it and we can too. We need to leave the “one-sided” all-or-nothing beliefs behind us - which are fed to us in the news headlines - in order to come together and figure this out.

And that's the key: coming together! You know that old saying, "United we stand, divided we fall."

Five years ago Harley-Davidson announced a "United We Roll" campaign - they shipped stickers to each dealership across the United States, including FX Caprara Harely-Davidson, that were handed out for free to anyone that wanted one.

Did a sticker magically change the world?? Of course not. It was, however, a nice reminder from the MoCo of what’s important to them as well.

That’s also another good reason to keep moving forward, towards our goal of being united. United in being kind to one another. United in wanting personal freedom for everyone.
