Aps, how about a forum ride this weekend, but a short one for those of us who are window-lickers on a bike?.

I've got my boy this weekend, he can't reach the passenger pegs on my bike.

He can probably reach mine, so we can trade bikes, k?

I doubt if you could reach the ground on mine, the seat is about 32 inches off the ground.

That woudn't work at all for me. I'm 5'3.

I had to lower it so I could ride it

Mine's a little bitty thing. I don't know how low it sits, but I can sit comfortably on it with both feet on the ground, so I'm guessing 12".

I haven't measured. I'm still trying to get what we now think is melted tennis shoe off my pipes. The Blue stuff didn't work.

Aps, how about a forum ride this weekend, but a short one for those of us who are window-lickers on a bike? Lugnut and I are thinking up north a bit (I'm thinking no further than St. Mary's Landing) and we MAY have another new rider with us if she passed today. So two newbies and the rest of you to watch out for us? I know my hubby will be right behind me because he's like father goose.

We're riding to VT on Thursday.. wanna come??

Oh, yeah. I'll be the slow one in the back with my backpack on.

Tracey is bringing the support truck, so I can't be going TOO fast!!

She could just load my bike in the back and I could entertain the baby all the way up?

I'll try to hook up with you this week. I'm off to bed.

Night, all.

Well, we do have a trailer.. but the Beemer isn't allowed on it.. yours can fit on it though.

You took 218 a lot quicker on the ride home

Yeah, I'm still a little uneasy about left turns though. I think I've gotten used to putting my tire right to the line in my car. Of course, doing that on a bike gets your head into oncoming traffic. I just need to learn to put my tires in the middle of the lane on lefts.
