A similar question: how many pilots are also motorcycle riders? This
question was asked by the instructor at a CFI seminar I attended in the
mid-1990s, and perhaps a quarter of the CFIs there raised their hands.

I ride a bike...
2001 Suzuki GSXR 750
1994 Honda RS 125 (track bike).

I've been riding street bikes since I was 19, and rode dirt bikes
before that. Motorcycles and flying are crack cocaine for me!

A friend of mine I rode w/ in college a few years ago also has his
PPL. I've also ran into assorted other pilots that ride, so maybe
there's some kind of correlation there. I think they're no too unlike
each other, both rewarding you for knowledge and experience. Deadly
to those who don't have respect for it. Keep the rubber side down!
