I just celebrated my 50th birthday and recently have had a lot of stress in my life. I was thinking, “What would put a smile back on my face?” I realized I had always wanted to ride a motorcycle and never did. The reason I havent is that I have three boys and I didnt want to influence them into getting a bike and killing themselves. They are grown men now and my oldest recently took up the sport. I figured that let me off the hook. If my other two get a bike it will be because their big brother did.
My husband tried to talk me out of it for fear of me getting hurt, but wasnt able to. I took the motorcycle safety class to make sure I wasnt a wimp and that I could handle it. My husband took the course as well. We were both immediately hooked. Soon after, we both purchased 250cc cruisers. I have a Yamaha Virago and he bought a Honda Rebel. We have been having a blast!
My friends and family all think I have gone completely mad. I have been street riding for about a month now. All I have to do is think about riding and a big grin appears across my face. I am anxious to join a group to ride with in the San Francisco Bay Area while I continue to improve my skills. Heres praying for many sunny days to come!
