Well Tonya actually hit the roads today. We just did a small loop of myers rd to 17a to 176 to myers road. the 2nd lap we did the same but went to wal mart on 176 and then back up to myers rd. She did pretty good she just needs to remember to have it in 1st before coming to a stop. The 1st lap she was real nervous and was going dangerously slow I had to keep getting her to speed up, dude on a scooter was going faster then her. By the 2nd lap she was doing a ton better I almost had to pull in front of her to slow her down but I just let her go, since she seemed comfortable.

Thank you very much. Think it was great, even after Jason told me what my speed was on the stretches. I wasn't rattled on them so I was ok with it. Those stops are going to get me for a while until I get a handle of stopping at a corners or intersections. Darn that woman turning at Walmart! Almost lost it there first. the stupid intersection at Devon forest school almost got me on the ground but i Saved it! Next time hope to do better. Maybe this Sunday again dear?

Sounds like a great start.

My wife is heartbroken. She cracked five (5!) bones in her left wrist about a month ago and decided to sell Sally (her Shadow 1100). We sold it yesterday.

I transferred the tag to the Rat Bike, which has very easy clutch pull. When she heals up, she'll have a machine that can corner and learn to ride again :lol:

Bad news on my ride, found a fuel leak draining into my air filter box. May be a while before i'm out there riding. At least I got one ride! Those carbs are going to drive me n Jason bonkers. They were a pain putting in and i'm dreading having to do it a second time.
