Riding Two Up


Now I know it's been a while since I last spewed forth something here so don't get excited. I've recently been doing something I haven't done on a regular basis for quiet some time. That's right I've been riding two up. I will say that it's taken a bit of getting use to.


Don't get me wrong, I have enjoyed the company on some of my recent short jaunts around middle Tennessee. These little starter rides we'll call them have been around a hundred or so miles. Giving credit where credit is due, my two up passenger has been a trooper. She has yet to complain in any shape form or fashion. Sure we've had some great winter days here to ride. No one can complain about temps in the 50's in the middle of winter. Though not all have been that warm.


One such ride was on a friday night with the mercury dipping down into the 20's. I must admit that I was impressed with her willingness to ride in such conditions. Granted it's no big deal to me. Come on I grew up spending most of my time outdoors year round. Fishing , hunting, riding scooters, camping, hiking and the like. I understan how to layer up in thin layers to keep myself warm and to be able to peel said layers off when needed.


So credit she gets for being a trooper and learning about this crazy way of life called motorcycling.


Thanks for taking the time to read my bablings,
