Our first bike ride!
Posted: Sat Jul 07, 2007 9:37 pm
Well I did it, or rather we did it! SL and Virginia straddled our Honda VTX 1800 for the first ride. I wore a pair of black slacks with print flowers around the cuffs, a white mock turtle neck long sleeve T, tucked in. Light pink nail polish, rings on every finger (I love my rings), and tennis shoes.
When we got back SL asked me how it felt and I have to admit it was somewhat anti-climatic. With a full-face helment, that negates any make-up and hair you may be wearing. We were in city traffic quite a bit, but I think all anyone saw that even looked was two girls on a motorcycle, actually nothing much out of the ordinary.
I guess one could wear shorts and a sleeveless tank top or something like that, but you are still on a bike and really full leathers would be the order of the day, 'cept it was in the mid -90's here today.
So I done it and SL even took a couple of pictures, and they are posted in the Gallery. Would I do it again!? Well, yes, it was not quite as intimidating as I thought. The hair thing could be a bit of a problem, but with proper planning it can be "taken care of" if you remove your "brain bucket" carefully!
Stay fluffy, girls
