How Much Time Do You Have Left to Ride? Make everyday count.

What if your calendar measured miles, not meetings? Today, I share why I walked away from a globe‑spanning tech role at 63 and how a simple question—how many rides are left—reshaped everything from morning routines to long‑range routes. The story starts with a box of old home videos, a flood of perspective, and a quiet realization that freedom only counts if your body and mind can enjoy it.

We dive into the nuts and bolts of protecting time on two wheels: the health habits that keep you riding longer, the mindset shift from scarcity to intention, and a planning method that turns “someday” into scheduled miles. Ron breaks down how he and his wife prepared for retirement, what business travel took out of him, and what opens up when you swap quarterly reviews for weather windows and mountain passes. Expect practical details—strength and mobility that matter for control and endurance, mental practices that sharpen attention, and a budget‑first approach to dream routes.

You’ll hear a clear, humane framework: take five seconds to estimate your remaining years, then spend the next weeks mapping rides that match your season of life. Prioritize people and places that carry meaning. Translate wishes into dates, routes, and resources. And hold room for joy, kindness, and the courage to go when the weather is “good enough.” If you’ve ever wondered how to turn a love of motorcycles into a life you can actually live, this is your sign to plan it—and to ride it.

If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a rider who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review to help others find Peace Love Moto.
