Title: My first group ride
Post by: duqette on September 02, 2008, 09:12:17 AM
 Labor Day the bf and I planned an easy ride up to Pt. Reyes. Gorgeous weather, tons of cars  :(, fabulous roads and scenery  :). On the way I saw a yellow 748, so I waved (of course), and he pulled up next to me in the lane and introduced himself at a red light. How nice, I thought... as I zipped through traffic a little to catch up to my bf, and 748 tagged along....

Almost all the way! Along the way we also picked up a yellow Triumph Daytona, and since I usually lead when the bf and I are riding together, I found myself leading the group between the cars, along the shoulder (whatever it takes), through the twisties, and over the hills and through the woods to the beach!  :o

Timid little me, on my lil 750, leading the pack of big-ass sprotbiles....  [laugh] [laugh]

My first group ride! I told my bf it was funny to think of me being the "leader of the pack," and he said, you're more like the den mother...  [bang]  [laugh]

Great little story D  :)

I have yet to do a group ride, but I've only been riding for about a month so it's still a little early. I think I'd be fine in a small group of mild mannered folk at this point though.
