ING Australia\u2019s latest study<\/a> revealed bikers were much happier than motorists. The survey interviewed drivers and bikers to gauge their happiness levels while operating a vehicle. 82% of bikers said driving hade them happy while only 55% of motorists enjoyed their drive.<\/p>\n

Another study by UCLA\u2019s Semel Institute for Neuroscience monitored hormone levels and brain activities in bikers and motorists before they went on a drive, during the drive and while they were resting. Bikers registered a 28% reduction in biomarkers associated with stress.<\/p>\n

An older study by Kawishima at the University of Tokyo<\/a> used a test group who rode motorcycles every day to work and another group who didn\u2019t. Both groups were given a long list of numbers to memorize to test their cognitive skills. The bikers improved their scores by 50% after riding to work every day for two months while the other group\u2019s scores decreased slightly over the same period.<\/p>\n
