    Oh I envy you! I wish that I had the guts to try to ride a motorcycle by myself. I love them but at 70 years old I am not as brave as I once was. Enjoy it for me also.

    Way to go! Where I live, traffic is so bad I'd be afraid to ride one of those, but if I had open roads around - who knows? Enjoy and keep safe.

    I LOVE riding on motorcycles. As a passenger. The only time I tried to "drive" myself, I ran the bike into a stack of apple bins. My boyfriend laughed so hard he nearly peed himself. But, I am a GREAT passenger I hope you have tons of fun!

    I used to ride as well. I started with a 50cc moped (no experience) to a 450, riding in all sorts of weather. I gave it up 26 years ago when I got pregnant.

    However, the roads around where I live might be too dangerous these days to go riding on a MC.

    Enjoy!!

    Absolutely, what you save in gas - you can buy more fabric - win-win...
