Sold the old ladys bike today
I purchased the old lady a 2000 yamaha road star back in oct. or nov. last year for her to ride, well she has never even touched the thing, much less showed any desire to learn to ride it, I found a buyer for it Thursday and he came through with the money today, I felt like that was one more burden lifted offof my shoulders to see it go, but felt a little sad, because when my bike let me down, I could jump on it and go. I just have a few more items on the back burner to settle before I will be free of all of the daliy $hit. My thoughts have been to just take off and ride carefree across the country and see the sights, just wondering if I could ever just take off and never look back. that would be the life. are there any more people out there that have done this, or at one time or another atleast thought about it?

RE: Sold the old ladys bike today
When we first talked about it she as a eager as anyone could of been about learing to ride, but in Augest of last summer she tried to take the riders course and dropped out due to the heat and all of the gear that had to be worn, we talked about her retaking the course in the cooler part of the year, and in Oct. I found the bike that I bought her, she really liked it, so I bought it thinking it would give her some more motivation to get back and take the course again, but she quickly dodged ever effert that was made to get the course done.

RE: Sold the old ladys bike today
The first bike my wife has ever ridden is on the back of mine. After 6 months she wants a Heritage after doing an article about biker chicks for the paper she works for. I have tried and tried to convince her about a small rice burner to get accustomed first, but she don't listen. This may turn out to be a costly endeavor. Although I wouldn't mind an unridden Heritage in my garage... :-)

RE: Sold the old ladys bike today
So the real question is, did she b!tch and moan when you sold it? \\; Even if she never touched the thing, she probably assumed it was going to be there forever! \\; 
RE: Sold the old ladys bike today
No she didn't whine and moan about it being gone, but she did throw a hissy fit thinking I was going to give her the money, I mean after all I did pay for it, it was in my name, and most of all I was the only one to ride it.
