Explaining sarcasm is just no fun.
And to the op, just scoot real far forward on the seat. And tell him NOT to hang on to you!

i gave my wife's dad a ride several years ago on my suzuki savage. the funny thing about it was, he is 6'3" or so. if you know how small a savage is you would see the humor in it. i'm only about 5'7".

My concern doesn't lie with "what anyone thinks", nor with what YOU THINK about if I should be riding or not!

Why is it there's always one jackass that preaches about not caring what anyone else thinks, then steps on his own dick "thinking"?

Good point! They are probably more shocked when my wife is with me!

(It was probably even worse when I gave them a ride on my Sportster which was a "girly bike" AND in a "girly color." (To this day, though, nobody has said that to my face!)

Hey guy. You asked! and I quote for your OP......."Whatcha' think"? I don't offer opinions unless asked.

You sound like my ex OL. She would ask me for an opinion regarding something one of her kids had done and then when she didn't like the answer she would tell me to mind my own business.
