I took her to a parking lot and drilled her on left, right and stops for about 4 hours... all is good thus far and shes really enjoys riding!

My wife has a lot of adventurous energy but often talks herself out of doing these things. I spent a lot of time convincing her of taking the MSF in order to see how she enjoys it.

Of course I was right and she enjoyed it and is now taking her dad's bike out whenever possible. I look at it as having a riding partner for life, though she is adamant about continuing to ride on my bike during any trip over an hour or so.

CONGRATS!!

My wife and oldest boy took the course together a couple of weeks ago.

The kid beat her scores in both the ridding and written, she was a little pissed ;-)

For right now they are rocking a Honda Rebel 250. Next spring the boy is getting a sportster and she wants a softail deluxe.

Way to go. My misses decided she was tired of looking over my head so she took the riding course, passed, and is now the proud owner of a three wheeler. Safest thing I could think of when getting her a Harley.

Am I missing something or is this a trend amongst the women to get their own scoot? Not a problem with me. I'd ride bi+ch on my misses bike any day of the week and be proud of it too!
