It's all about making the participants feeling Heard and Valued. They need this because they feel Ignored. In other words there's nothing much going on in their lives and they feel inadequate. They don't seem to be willing or able to enjoy a motorcycle ride for its own sake. Tbf that can be an uphill struggle in the US, where there are so few corners and filtering is generally illegal. You have to get the map out and look for interesting minor roads. But hardly any Americans can think beyond the Interstate, and they've never owned a map.
