6 boys (4 mine, 2 hubby's) - 21, 18, 18, 14, 11 and 9
1 new dog (also male).

My first bike was a Kawasaki KLR 650.
I'm looking for my next bike.

Is it odd to feel a "bond" with your bike, or is that just strange? LOL

My first (and only bike) is a BMW F650GS.

I'd still have my first bike had I not totaled it in August.
I LOVE lookin at bikes!
Can't wait to get my next one...didnt think i'd ever want to ride again.

Hello.............Debbie from Orlando, FL, 48 years young. I have (2) adult children and (2) babies. Started riding dirt bikes when I was 30 and it just took off from there. I have a 97 Honda Shadow ACE 1100. I ride as much as the weather permits and even when it doesn't ....lol! I was a member of a local Chrome Diva chapter, but don't really like riding in formation.........not my thing. My bike is my Joy:bigsmile:

Good Morning, my name is Sheila, I live in Ga and have four kiddos, one grand baby and one on the way. My hubby has always ridden since he was a child started on a dirt bike, I rode two up with him for 20 plus years and now have my own ride. I ride a 2002 fatboy which is lowered , I am short. I still enjoy riding two up but also love riding my bike. Sometimes its hard to decide. When I ride with him I bring a book to read or I fall asleep because its soooooooo relaxing. You should see the looks, rofl. In June ill be riding to Conn. I only got my license two years ago, took a woman's rider course, and Ive made two long distance trips so far one to MI and one to Conn. Thankful I found this group, I used to work at home and don't work at all now so I spend alot of time alone, Recently I learned to quilt so if im not riding , im with Colin (my sewing machine) I have some weight to lose over 50lbs and I am thankful for all support.

Mine was August 10th. I was on my way home from work. About 3-4 miles from home. My husband was in New Hampshire so I was on my own. Good thing he has great friends to help me out.

I'm really glad you made it!!!
My husband and I were on our way to work.
His mother was on her way over to our house to get our boys off to school that Friday.
It was her that I met head on.
Poor woman witnessed the entire thing.
We were less than 1/4 mile from our driveway...I still had it in 2nd gear.

OMG, that's awful. I bet she took a lot of kidding after everything settled down.
So glad you're ok.

The poor woman is still traumatized by it. I feel so bad for her. I like to share my plants and things with her - I tell her often that I have too many or whatever. She has a huge amount of guilt, and I'm hoping she can get past it.

Hi, I started out riding a little honda 100 around the farm, stepped up to a Yamaha DT125 then a Virago 250 now I'm on the Sporty. I have had my licence for about 12 years now.

Hubby has never had a motorbike licence and is actually going for his Provisional licence tomorrow at the age of 47.

Hi, I live in the Chicago area and have been riding for nearly 30 years. I started out on a Honda 350, then a BMW 600/5 with a sidecar, taking my son on rides. Later on I got a Suzuki 650 and now currently ride a Kawasaki Vulcan 750. I have been a member of a riding club and we do campouts and rallys. A great way to see the country!
