Honey Ride (Read 3085 times)

Richard rbent member Posts: 480	Honey Ride Mar 19^th, 2007, 10:54am Took my honey out for a tune up ride. Im trying to gently introduce her to our crazy bent world. We took a lap arount Whiterock and she did fine. In fact she's probably in far better shape than I was when I started riding a year ago. I hope she doesn't find out what drop means too soon! She may wind up kicking my buns a year from now!

suecoop-Linda rbent member Posts: 63	Re: Honey Ride Reply #6 - Mar 26^th, 2007, 8:17pm Thanks for clarifying the drop thing...somehow it seemed much worse than it acually is. So, if I get dropped.....instead of being all down and out .... I can just pull out the Palm and play a few video games till the SAG vehicle shows up hauls me back to people. No problem there.

Opus the Poet Five Star Member rbent member Posts: 1353	Re: Honey Ride Reply #7 - Mar 27^th, 2007, 5:18pm That assumes ther is a SAG. If you're out on your own there's no SAG, just you gutting it out. And from the tone I took from Richard's post, I think he's more worried about you dropping him than vice versa. Opus

When I read it and replied, I had visions of being out on the road watching everyones' back as they left me in the dirt. Obviously I'm new to biking and the terminology. Thank goodness I have a translator close! I am really looking forward to riding more now that I have my bent and have no pain when I ride. Linda

Paul - I'm very glad to be here. The difference in bikes is unbelievable! With that upright I couldn't decide which hurt worse, my wrists or my rear end. cry

I couldn't figure out why the heck I should torture myself just to get out and ride a bike. I had pretty much given up on getting to ride with Richard......
.....until this really cool Santa brought the Burley. Cool
