    I ride my bike every day I can. To me there is no better start to my day than by getting my knees in the breeze :) I wear my full face helmet every time even though SD is a helmet optional state.

    I ride a Yamaha VStar 1300 and LOVE it!!! During the summer it is pretty much my only form of transportation!

    Nebraska has a helmet law so always have mine on. Not so good about the ATGATT other then helmet though.

    Nice looking bike Taso!

    I rode to work today. Beautiful day. It's about 15deg C here in the morning which I think is about 45-50F? Got my kevlar jeans on (casual friday :P)

    This is my ghetto CBR :devil:

    I ride with my husband, does that count? Haha! My original plan was to lose weight and get my own bike. However, by the time I'm going to get this weight off, it'll be time to start making babies! But for now, I ride on the back and love it! So happy to see so many smart people here who wear full protective gear! :heart:

    Sorry to highjack the thread. I love reading about women who are riders. Be safe out on the road.

    I actually joined MFP because my gut kept hanging over the tank on my sport bike.

    My two rides

    Harley Davidson FLHX for touring.

    Ducati 1198 for canyon riding. Back when I was 60 lbs heavier.

    I used to own a 2004 Yamaha R6. Haven't ridden in about a year or so. And that was on a borrowed bike. I have my eye on the Yamaha R1. I would love to learn to race someday...but not in the current shape I am in LOL

    I only ride with my husband too and I love it. I don't know if I'll ever go for my own license. I don't really have the desire to do so. But last summer my husband bought a VTX (He also has a CBR) so that we could take rides together and I found that I really enjoy riding with him. This is a huge thing, because we don't have a lot in common and it is nice to find something we both enjoy doing together.

    Rode into work this morning... almost didn't wear my jacket since its going to be in the 90s! Too bad I'm a sucker for safety! lol... thank god its a textile and has vents everywhere... :) it was so nice first thing this morning... wish I didn't have a birhday party after work to attend or I'd go out for a nice ride on the nice curvy roads.

    I have a Kawasaki Vulcan 500, blue and beautiful! I haven't been riding long, got my license last November. It's been sitting with a dead battery for a while now, just been trying to scrounge money for new battery and tires. Almost there!

    Speaking of, where do you ladies buy your tires, get oil changes, etc?

    I order my tires online and have a guy that puts them on and do my own oil changes. I love tinkering with the bikes :)
