Motorcycling and An Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD)

BuckBuck#1 - An old Newbie, or a Newbie that is old.

OCPD - Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder is little talked about. To get an appreciation I have provided an insight to my own family background and my years of coming to terms with a condition that at times was a huge struggle.

I count myself to be very lucky, retiring early - medically. I've been able to relax easier now, but still have my moments. With the assistance of good professional clinical management of my condition and with my family, I have been able to apply cognitive behaviour techniques and deal with issues and challenges a lot better.

Learning to ride a motorcycle, a rewarding challenge, was more than therapeutic - riding helps me immensely.

I hope you enjoy reading this blogg and that it provides an insight to how I learnt to ride - and continue to learn.

    No matter how I try to express my positive and supportive comments, that of themselves may appear to deride the overall tenet of Ulysses, my comments are intended to be provocative and also to be in a healthy context. It is and never has been my intention to decry Ulysses. But, when I see there is a need for positive encouragement and reinforcement of motorcycle safety then I will never take a backward step.

    Where we have the ability, the strong and positive encouragement, to improve ...
