Something I do for myself. <br /><br />Also, he's a 6ft something, so riding two up with him as pillion was not an option. <br /><br />But now I can do both, ride with him as or ride alone, and it's nice to have this choice, and he respects that I still need my own time to ride solo.SonjaMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12389245948579828531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2767318503668121403.post-46750349091107471572013-06-05T09:35:32.344-04:002013-06-05T09:35:32.344-04:00I am late to reading this post, but it is interest...I am late to reading this post, but it is interesting to me because I too enjoy hanging out at old cemeteries. Sometimes they become a ride destination and a place to picnic and read. <br /><br />In fact, I am working up a blog idea on a few of the new ones I've discovered.<br /><br />I can relate to your desire to share your ride experiences with your SO. I feel the same way sometimes with my partner but she does not and will never ride or "ride along" on a bigger scooter.<br /><br />However, I always offer a "ride report" and she enjoys hearing all about it and just last night we drove out some of the roads I've scooted around here and I offered up a mini- tour of sorts. <br /><br />I can stand to share some, but still need my solitude on my rides. Not sure things would be the same with someone along all the time. <br /><br />But then I don't have to deal with this and it works out well for us.<br /><br />I hope you two can work out a way to share and you also still have your alone time.<br /><br />You and I seem to ride for the same reasons and I MUST have that in my life. MUST!<br /><br />It's like AIR to me. Gotta have it!

I don't think my hubby had much practice with two up before we met (19 years ago) but he managed just fine. Hasn't dropped me yet.....<br /><br />Mind you I finally went to my own ride several years ago. Hard to go back to pillion after that. it is good she has already been a pillion as she'll know what to do and not to do at slow speeds.<br /><br />Me thinks you two will have fun and it will be something else for you to enjoy together.Trobairitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453398807198746434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2767318503668121403.post-53286306463652719722013-05-28T08:38:46.720-04:002013-05-28T08:38:46.720-04:00This is a nice post.

I can understand wanting to share the ride, but I think it's good and healthy to experience things that no one else is there to see or enjoy. Just for you.Martha https://www.blogger.com/profile/02785787084073523841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2767318503668121403.post-10029650500357115152013-05-27T20:31:18.947-04:002013-05-27T20:31:18.947-04:00Rob, sharing the experience is always worth doing....Rob, sharing the experience is always worth doing.

Law of averages I guess. Some do. Some don't. Lucky you, I think. David Massehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09346419242154545286noreply@blogger.com
