Does this bike make my butt look fast?


« 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  Sad, fabulous roads and scenery  Smiley. 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!  Shocked

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

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 head  laughingdp

Great little story D  Smiley

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.
