Re: Wife is a new Motorcyclist!
It's great that your wife is out and about on two wheels! I've tried to get my Lady on her own ride, but she says she'd rather ride behind (not that that's bad). However, a couple of weeks ago she spied a new Indian Scout. Nice low seat height and all that. I told her she better start saving more than pennies, lol!

Re: Wife is a new Motorcyclist!
It's a mom thing. Our youngest son goes to road courses for track days and is developing into a really good rider, a couple weekends ago though he dropped his CBR for the first time while attempting to pass another rider in a turn. Other than being sore he escaped injury and the bike only suffered cosmetic damage and was back on the track a couple hours later. My wife and I didn't show up until about an hour after it happened which is a good thing because my wife would've come unglued if she saw it happen. It would've rattled me too but my wife no doubt would've had a melt down.

Re: Wife is a new Motorcyclist!
I can hardly get the boss to ride with me. That's great to have your girl riding.

Well done to all of you. I absolutely love stories like this!
