Back in the Saddle again

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Greenville Central

A year ago my husband and I decided to start riding motorcycles. It was something that both of us wanted to do all our lives and we finally decided to just do it. Jimmy got a Harley Night Train. After being on the back of his for about 3 months, I wanted to learn to ride. He taught me on his own and I loved it. I wanted my own. I wanted a Harley Street Bob, but didn't want to learn on something that powerful until I know I was a better rider. Well a year and half later I got what I wanted....I sold my Honda last week and yesterday, we loaded up and went to pick up my bike.

So I am back in the Saddle again and loving it!!!!! So today to break my bike in we are headed to Maggie Valley, NC to see the history on wheels! I will let you know how it was.

Best of luck to you. My wife and I both ride.  Wheels thru time in Maggie Valley is awesome, Dale is a great guy and everything there runs and he rides them.

Yes I foresee the Trike coming into play to show homes since gas prices are going exhorbitant!

Many years ago I had a Kawasaki. I loved it. Due to physical issues I did stop riding. However every once in a while a bug will hit me and then I start looking at the trikes.......

Having said that, riding a motorcycle in California compared to Iowa where I used to live is somewhat more dangerous.......

Stay focused while riding, never assume, enjoy your time. Congratulations on your new bike.

You go girl!  My husband is an "old school" biker and we road for 30 years .  Way back when, Harleys broke down a lot and you always carried a good tool kit.  He likes to say he has more miles pushing his Harley, than most have riding today.  lol

I want one now!!!! I love your bike and can't wait to go for a spin with you and Jimmy. It will be nice to see you back on your bike instead of on the back of one.
