My Own Set of Handle Bars

(Logsden, Oregon)

It seemed like the only time my husband and I had alone, while raising a house full of kids, was when we went for a ride on his Road King. It was so romantic and I loved it. But then I learned that one third of all new Harley's were sold to women and I thought "I can do that!" I raised six kids...I got a Nursing Degree....I can learn how to ride a motorcycle.... So I did it. I took a motorcycle safety class, got my endorsement and I now ride a beautiful Honda ST 1300. It is so smooth and quick. I had an older gentleman ask me to give him a ride on the back. I joked with him that I hadn't ridden anyone on the back yet and I might kill him. He said "yah...but what a way to go." My kids worry a little about me now...pay back? My husband and I are having a great time, and for some reason it is more romantic than ever...could it be the ST? ;->
