The whole premise is generally when you see guys on motorcycles, you’re thinking they’re big, tough guys and they’re not you know, they don’t have these kinds of problems. But we do. And this is you know, this is our way to show that we do care about things like that, you know, and make people aware that it does happen to them regardless of, you know, how tough they try to be.
