UGGGGHHHH!
Dang it! I dropped my bike again! This time we were leaving my sister-in-law April's house. I went to take off and my engine sputtered and the next thing I knew I'm on the ground rolling away from my bike. WTH!!!! Thankfully Dalton was looking back and saw because he and Adam were already at the end of the street about to turn onto the highway....Adam to the rescue again! He's my knight on shiny chrome! Talk about put your confidence in the crapper and I had to ride the 45 minutes home thinking about it. Oh well, home now with only a few scratches on me. The good news is my bike doesn't look like its ever been dropped :)

A Few Things You Should Know
Here's the real deal, no one tells you that after a long day of riding your face feels like leather, your arms are dry, and your hair, well it's just plain funky. There is no cure for helmet hair so please don't even think about looking cute. Put a hat or a bandanna in your saddlebags and deal with it.
You want cute clothes? Yeah, right. Let's see, you can wear clothes that have the HD logo everywhere but guess what not all of us ride a Harley!!!!! You can wear the flattering men's cut jacket with the too long of sleeves and the flared out waist or you can always have Joe Rocket splashed across your body. Not my idea of fashion.
Let's talk about bike color. We're females we want our bikes to reflect our personalities. Why is it alright for men to have chrome and men crap on theirs but look at us like we're crazy when we mention pink, purple, or swarovski crystals???
And guess what I am a woman and no I don't have anything to prove so if it's too cold, too hot, rainy or I just don't want to...I'm not riding....so what?!

Riding with Friends
Left this morning with the B's (Bob & Belinda) headed out with a smile on my face and songs on my ipod! Beautiful weather for a ride. We worked our way through East Feliciana, St. Helena, and Livingston parishes and I didn't have one mishap....go me! I'm a little slower than everyone else through the curves but I hope with more practice I will master them.
