Ha ha! I actually rode around the Garden State Plaza and then headed to Ridgewood via Paramus Road, (ate at the Office) and then headed to Van Saun Park, then to a friend's house, then home! In total I did 50 miles.

Thanks for all the congrats! I can't wait to play some more! (i mean, practice some more...)

And, just to be clear, I did 50 miles today, however, the bike now has about 190 miles on it total!

FARA - You ROCK! Congratulations on your first "real" ride! It certainly gets better!!! All those rodes you've driven in a car before will be TOTALLY different on a bike!
I think more women need to ride.. I'm only 5 feet tall and if I can do it, anyone can! lol
Does that mean next Sunday you'll hit 100 miles? Your story put such a huge smile on my face remembering my first "real" ride (which was just a year ago)! **thanks for sharing** awww The excitement only ESCALATES! ride safe

Good job! I remember 2 years ago when I got my new Harley, I couldn't stop riding it. Fast forward2 years and about 7100 miles later, I still can't get enough of it. I'm just glad spring is here!
