Riding tomorrow?

[ArkRescue]

I never got a license to drive one because everyone told me that I'm so small that I wouldn't be able to hold up anything but the smallest bikes

Not fair.

Buddy of mine has a hardtail solo-seat vintage Harley too and he had a 'b!tch pad' made for the rear fender. Cute little piece of leather upholstery about 4" wide, 5" long and 2" thick.

He's no longer married either.

Not true... there is a utube video of a female cop lifting a huge bike from on it's side, sure you could ride...Ummmm, the drive comment is scary though

It's not just strength, you also have to be tall enough for both feet to reach the ground when the bike is standing up too

So, you must ride ponies. Or use a stepladder to get up on a 15 hands horse.

Generally I climb up on the wheel well of the horse trailer and mount the taller one that way. The shorter one, which is probably large pony size, is not hard to get on from the ground.

They can shorten just about any bike, and a LOT of bikes come with shorter seats.

Many makes come with a standard model, and a factory short model along with a low seat.. Real hard to be too short these days.

No way - ferals don't leave that much ketsup errr blood behind ...

Sat, 12 March. I know I am...almost 60 degrees and sunny is called for.

So, we going to do an impromptu forum ride?? Where? What time?

Well, how short are you?

Buddy of mine just got a Rebel 250. Ark, unless your like that lady from Poltergeist, you could ride this thing. Very tiny bike. Seat height is 26.6 inches. Weight is only 350lbs, which might sound heavy, but you are not going to bench press it. If you have time, come on out to the upcoming motorcycle safety fair, you could talk to folks, see a bunch of motorcycles, I am sure some of the smaller bike will be in attendance. Great way to get a feel for it.

..that was just wrong. Funny, yes..but so wrong.

Planning on heading out and south around noonish...first stop to check for leaks and loose fasteners (ancient Harley, mind you) will be St. Mary's city.

If you could wait until 1:30 I'll join you - otherwise, when you pass the post office in St Mary's City, blow your horns for me....
