Garderners' World magazine set out to find out what hobbies make people people happy and unsuprisingly Motorcycling has topped their list.
The survery of 1514 people from across the UK, was conducted by leading survey organization ICM. When asked the question: "how satisfied are you with your life nowadays?", Motorcycling received the most amount of 'strong positive' responses, ahead of fishing with the second largest number of responses and Running, Swimming, Driving and camping comind in at third largest number of responses.

When asked the question: "To what extent do you feel the things you do in your life are worthwhile?" Motorcyling again received the most amount of 'strong postitive' responses. Is anyone else starting to notice a pattern here? ranking higher than Camping and Fish. Ironically on the flip side regular cycling received the lowest amount of 'strong positive' results for this question.
It seems that riding a motorcylce just seems to make you live a better life. On the 'Wellbeing Index' motorcyling also had the largest number of responses in the 'strong positive' category. And it seems that the Garderners' World survey is maybe not what they had anticipated.
The survey also showed that 69% of people said that their outdoor hobby makes them happy, compared to the 31% indoor.
Of course those without any hobbies ranked consistently lower in the survey results than any other hobby. So if you don't have a hobby its pretty simple, get on two wheels the kind with a little power between 'em.
