a WoW moment

My boyfriend Robert and I were riding on his Harley this past weekend. 

Riding the motorcycle is a wow in itself, since I was way too heavy pre-op to ride behind someone. I probably wouldn't have been able to get up on it even if it did hold our combined weight.


So, we are stuck at a traffic light, nd the sensor would not change it from red to green because the weight of the bike was not heavy enough. 

A guy pulls behind us in his pickup truck and we wave him around.  We explained to him the bike was too lightweight and urged him to drive around us to make the light change. 

He grinned and winked at Robert and in the most sincere redneck twang said "not having too much weight riding behind you is a good thing, she's hot! "  He then pointed at me and drove around.

I was so tickled I almost fell off the bike. I didn't know whether to shout, cry tears of joy, or laugh.  I think I did all of the above at the same time.


Thank God for my DS and for making me a certified biker babe!

Wow; you go girl!  I loved this story because it reminds me of when my husband had his bike and we rode.  I was much heavier then; I wish he had one now.  We would really enjoy it! Maybe now that the kids are just about on their own, it will happen :).

We also rented scooters in the Bahamas last month and jet skis.  Maybe you can try something like that on vacation even if the budget doesn't allow for buying a bike.
