Ride defensively and safe. Worry about what you can see and smell rather than how fast you can go.

I don't have a wife or g/f, but do have a 'riding family' that have been very supportive! The group of folks I ride with are great people and during the good riding months here in CO, we tend to put on a buttload of miles.

As a group, during Spring, Summer, Fall of 2007, we probably all rode about 12,000 miles (each) from April through early December.

Your absolutely right about holding off on riding 2-up til you are 100% back in the groove and have your confidence level back for 2-up riding.

Is it late March yet?
