Default Made the wife scream today

...... get yer minds out the gutter.




Went on the annual Toys for Tots ride today and had the wife ride pillion. We were in a really nice decreasing radius turn entering the interstate. I wasn't riding aggressive, but we carried a fair amount of corner speed and lean angle. All I could hear was her screaming, and all I could do was laugh.

My wife's exactly the opposite. If we're not dragging hard parts, she doesn't feel like we're leaning enough. She's actually in the MSF BRC right now getting licensed to ride her own bike.

nothing like a terrified wife to make you laugh on a ride. I woulda laughed then cranked the bike over more for fun.

first time Jeeps took me out on the GSXR (my first time on a sport bike) he gave me about 20 miles to get used to the difference in seating then went WFO down HWY 215 (very tight twisties). Scared the hell out of me and thrilled me all at the same time. I was hooked right then and there!! Now I have a M on my license and my own bike.
Although I can't come close to what he can do it's still fun and I'm hooked for life!
