Well today is the wife’s and my anniversary. Happily married for 5 years now and we have been together a total of 12. We were trying to think what to do to celebrate and I jokingly said well we could go for a bike ride and she said ok let’s do it. Now mind you she has never ever been on a motorcycle. Took her for a ride and she loved it. Humm now may be the time to talk to her about getting a Rocket 3. We road for about 80 miles or so, not a real long day but none the less a long day for her. Only bad thing that happened was that she burnt herself on the exhaust pipe but she still had a great time. I would post some pictures but I am not sure how to post them on this sight. Be safe everyone and we will see you on the road.

Congrats on the anniversarry.But.....

You may have created a monster, I mean having a spouse that loves getting out on the bike is a 2 edged sword.

On the minus side, If she realy loves riding (like mine does). you may find it very hard to get out for a solo ride.

On the plus side, she wont be likly to give you a hard time
about wanting to replace a burned out bike

I think I figured out how to post picts

Yep thats a classic exhust burn alright, great country side.

wuff... I'm down on Anderson SC. There are several riders in the area. We need to put together a WNC/ upstate SC ride together. Sorry to see the burn.

My wife want to learn to take the bike out on her own, yikes!!!!

Wuff-

Congrats on the anniversary and the fact that your spouse enjoys riding. Earlier this year we had our 20th anniversary and I bought my wife her own bike (883 Sportster). It is fun to ride together and apart. Different, but still fun.

Beware because now she will want to accessorize (boots, jacket, chaps, gloves, aparrel, etc., etc., etc.)

Have fun!
