First Ride Since Accident
Well it's been almost 6 months since my new 2011 RK was totalled when a driver stopped at a stop sign and then pulled out in front of me. Took delivery of my new Limited 2 months later and it has been in winter storage at the dealership.
Today was the day, temperatures in the low 60's. I woke up feeling like sh----, not good, chest cold, body aches. Rode about 30 miles home from the dealership, asked my husband if he wanted to ride and went to rest. Husband is now making noise about traded in his RKC. I say go for it!

Welcome back LadyDeluxe. It's good to hear your back in the saddle and on a new Scoot
. You must be pretty sweet, cause my wife would "rub my nose" in that new Limited for awhile before she'd let me trade up from the RK... LOL!

Way to get back on the HD horse - probably the best cold remedy ever made. Nice scoot & hope you're feeling better to get some more miles on the bike.
