In this rush at the end of 2016 to sum up what it means for ourselves and motorcycling, while we simultaneously look ahead to all the potential that 2017 has to offer, we can get distracted from the moment all to easily. The concept of mindfulness has gained popularity in recent years among navel gazers (like myself) as a means of preventing the rush of information we live in from becoming overwhelming to our very souls. So, in this spirit, I offer this moment of unabashed moto-joy to savor for 37 seconds of bliss.

Like most of the best happenings in his life, Evans stumbled into his motojournalism career. While on his way to a planned life in academia, he applied for a job at a motorcycle magazine, thinking he’d get the opportunity to write some freelance articles. Instead, he was offered a full-time job in which he discovered he could actually get paid to ride other people’s motorcycles – and he’s never looked back. Over the 25 years he’s been in the motorcycle industry, Evans has written two books, 101 Sportbike Performance Projects and How to Modify Your Metric Cruiser, and has ridden just about every production motorcycle manufactured. Evans has a deep love of motorcycles and believes they are a force for good in the world.
