ORIGINAL: Bluerose

Hahahaha....I think my husband almost fainted when I said, "Since I'm always on-call and we have a hard time getting away for more then a few hours why don't we buy a couple of bikes?"

When my on-call status changed (along with my job) we were very pleased to be able to just add more time to our riding. I think it has actaully helped our relationship in many ways....there wasn't anything we were interested in together before like we are both into the bikes.

Now we are both working on getting Touring Bikes so we can take even longer rides.

BTW...I passengerize but not often. The more I ride my own the less I want to ride with someone else.
Rose,

Are you still coming by the range tomorrow?

Wife rides her own. Best riding partner I could ask for. She is always ready to ride either solo and she still enjoys riding behind me on some of our longer trips, even thou I'm know she is liking solo more and more.

A couple times a year, we, along with several other riders we spend a day in a vacant parking lot practising the Ride Like A Pro. We plan to have a Sunday ride in that vacant parking lot with our HOG Chapter before riding season is here. It is a great way before the beginning of the actual season to get together for practise and reminders of group riding, plus it really helps the new riders feel more welcomed and comfortable, plus it is just amazing fun to watch everyone practise and help each other. Lots of smiles,laughter, just good ole bikers enjoying life.

My wife is talking about getting another bike. We have two daughters and it would be fun, for all four of us to go riding together.
I can't get her to the dealership fast enough!
