Memorialize Your Loved One with an Adventurous Motorcycle Urn

When some look at motorcycles, all they see is a mode of high-risk, high-performance transportation. For others, motorcycles represent so much more. They are emblematic of choosing to buck the status quo by embracing freedom, passion, and adventure. Of joining a community of like-minded individuals with whom they can escape the confines of cities and enjoy the open road. If your loved one embraced this lifestyle, the perfect way to memorialize them is with an adventurous motorcycle urn.   

One of a Kind

Probably the most strong commonality among motorcyclists is that they're all highly unique people who enjoy expressing themselves as individuals. Even when they ride together in groups, you can see their flair for individuality peeking through, expressed in their separate preferences for what they ride, how they retrofit their bikes, what styles they adopt, and how they handle their machines on the road. By memorializing your loved one with an adventurous motorcycle urn, you're honoring that strong streak of individuality and letting them continue to be themselves. 

Zest for Life

Bikers typically have a strong zest for life. Rather than closing themselves off in cars, trucks, or vans, they hit the roads in a way that allows them to enjoy the wind in their faces, totally free to immerse themselves fully in the surrounding sights, smells, and sounds. For motorcycle enthusiasts, travel isn't just about the destination. It's also about the journey. Because they experience their travels in a more full, embodied way, they're able to enjoy every moment. No napping against airplane windows for this crowd! An adventurous motorcycle urn is the perfect way to honor this zest for life. 

The Need for Speed

Because the power-to-weight ratio of the motorcycle is nearly unmatched, many people are drawn to them as much for their speed capabilities as anything else. Unless you're intentionally enjoying a slow, Saturday-morning drive, a motorcycle will get you where you want to go more quickly and efficiently than traditional modes of transportation. While speed is part of what makes motorcycles high-risk, it's also a huge part of the draw. Choosing a memorial motorcycle urn acknowledges this dynamic.  

Recreation and Fun

While people around the world certainly do use motorcycles for practical purposes, here in North America, motorcycles are associated more with recreation and fun than with the daily grind. Having the chance to hop on a bike at any time, head out on an adventure, and feel the wind in your face is part of what makes owning a motorcycle so appealing.

In that way, bikers have earned a reputation for knowing how to relax and have fun. And with good reason! Motorcycle riding has been known to boost both cognitive functions and mood levels!

The reason we feel so happy is pretty simple: every twist of the wrist releases adrenaline which, in turn, releases endorphins. These 'feel good' hormones improve our mood, increase pleasure and minimize pain. So, endorphins give us that joyous feeling but, after a ride, there's also that sense of relief, like a weight has been lifted. (Ride Now)

When you choose a motorcycle urn to commemorate your loved one, you're respecting an aspect of their lives that likely contributed greatly to their mental and emotional wellbeing. 

Grief and Remembrance

Losing a friend, family member, or loved one can be an isolating experience. Just as one sets out on a solitary bike trip, you must now set forth in your journey of grief and healing. Choosing to memorialize your loved one with an adventurous motorcycle urn can remind you that the process is just that: it's a journey rather than a destination. In the end, you will find healing.
