The kids have set up a tent in the back yard. There is a fire in the pit. They are making Smores and having a great time.

Tomorrow night is my night at the fire pit.
I think I will break training and pick up a 6 pack.
I will pay for it on Sunday I know but screw it.

So, trying to continue upon my successful first attempt at interstate riding, I decided to take the Mrs. around the block... not as easy as I anticipated. May have to get her her own bike.

Was it her or you. Or both.
When I 1st put the spouse behind me on 2 wheels it was a real circus. She actually caused us to go down once. It is a learning curve for both pilot and passenger.
After some solid seat time she became as one with the machine.

A little of both I'm sure, but I felt like I had never ridden before. I am just really starting to get a feel for the bike and it threw everything off for me. Throttle, clutch, balance, everything.

Of course she was already super nervous, and I'm sure me being freaked out by seemingly not knowing what I'm doing didn't help to calm her.

Seat time. Let her know she has a lot to do with where you are going as in balance etc.
It will come to her.

And you.

When we got back to the house I dropped her off and went back out for a bit to get my confidence back.

They go down so easy when they're cold.

Damn you man......damn you.

I'm enjoying one right now...and I need a cigar.
