First Post Op Ride!

Wow ! What a day ! I took both bikes out today it was finally DRY! I was so excited to leave that I did not take my Cell Phone or Drivers License ... The Drifter ran out of gas on me and I was so frustrated I did not even think to switch to reserve... Mileage said 74 miles so I figured I had at least 30 miles worth of gas.... WRONG! Hubby had been running bike in garage to keep fluids good... so I had to walk home 12 blocks and get hubby... I got my exercise in today ! Then we switched on reserve (DUH! I am such dumb blonde at times! ) So I then took Twinkle my Yamahog out for spin.... Just the sound of that V Rod engine ...ohhhh I had sooo much fun! LOVED IT!!!! Made it home just before the rain cut loose... come on sunshine I need more!!! But tonight I am a happy girl! Got my ride!! Keep the rubber on the road ! Angel J

Congratulations Angel, I'm glad you were able to enjoy a ride. Just consider running out of gas, a funny anecdote. Steve

Good to hear you finally made it out. I went out the other day. -posted about the new england ride. --It is now 21 degrees out and very cold and windy. I won't be riding again until March so I am very jelouse of you and Steve. I was 1/2 way out for my ride when I though "gas" and registration. Luckly I managed to grab gas in time and never got pulled over. I am down about 70 lbs and what a difference it makes riding. I was always very comfortable on my bike- suzuki 850- but riding the 1100 was a little much. I didn't have confidence in myself. Looks like I am heading to a new bike now. We will see what spring brings. Good luck with riding hope the weather stays nice for you. donna

Hi Donna! Hope you got to sneak a ride in. It's makes me so happy when I ride. All my cares stress and worries just blow away on the wind. I ALWAYS come home smiling no matter what kind of day I have had. Angel J Road
