I think riding motorcycles is one of those things that's just in your blood. I've riding since I could get on a minibike. I know people who have been in motorcycle accidents including myself. Everyone I know always points out when they hear about another motorcycle accident on the news... It doesn't stop me from riding. It's just in my blood. Nothing on earth gives you the feeling you get when on the open road on two wheels.

No real regrets, I still have a lot of my riding gear, though, and wouldn't rule out getting something again for short rides, maybe even an electric bike for commutes someday, but I don't really think anything out there right now is ready for primetime.

I would be lying if that isn't something that crosses my mind more these days too.
