Both on motorcycles, Buddy? Or 2-up maybe?

We both have Suzuki Burgman 400 scooters Jim. She started out on a Vespa 150 and finally decided she wanted something bigger to go on longer rides.

Oh cool. I wish my wife rode, but as she said when I brought it up years ago, "I'd kill myself." Unfortunately I think she's right.

Well, at least your daughter rides. That's cool too. I started teaching my son and daughter but I felt like I was making them learn to ride. They just weren't into it so I quit trying.

My son was like that, Buddy. When I first got the DT100 running he rode it around the yard a couple times and had quite a bit of trouble keeping it running. He never expressed any interest in it again. That's OK, he is way good at the stuff he is interested in.

Wife and I rode the Cherahola on the day it wasn't supposed to rain. Guess what, we got soaked on the trip back. Looking forward to meeting your new gal next May.

If everything works out I'll be going this year with my neighbor Dave. I need to ping Graebner and give him a heads up.
