Default Unbeliveable!!!!!!!

Bought a 2000 UC back two months ago and having been getting in a little riding on occasions--when not 104--- My wife of 29 years use to ride with me all the time on my old one (riceburner) which i sold 29 years ago. But after brain surgery, she got to where she wouldn't take any chances....stopped riding horses,,etc..... been trying to get her on the back of the UC since i got it but she just said "i won't my own!!!"-- trike, which is ok with me. TODAY kids in school,, home alone,,, 80 degrees,, i told her that she should get on and let's go...CAN YOU BELIEVE>>>she did....had a great ride up on the Talamena Drive out of Mena then back home....Think i may have "RELEASED THE BEAST!!>>>>>

Talamena drive is a cool little ride. Rode up through there last fall with a bunch of guys from work.

I've made that very same little ride many times. If that won't help to "release the beast", I don't know what it would take!

You should just give in and get her, her own trike. Then you can ride off into the sunset together.
