I love to be with mother nature,the wind,the noise as I crack the throttle.
After a long days ride,then Im home laying down to crack the ol woman dreamin about tomorrow when I wake my 62 year old retired body up to do it all again. Thank you Lord and may I have many more days and miles of this wonderful world.

other than an occasional patriot Guard mission, I ride solo. I might like to ride with a couple of friends but none of my friends ride.
Starting out I've found a great mentor for riding, my sister-in-law's boyfriend.
...sister-in-law means she's married to your brother.... does he know she has a boyfriend?... :?

Im nore of a solo rider but because I would rather ride in a group that I know apose to a group I dont know, thou both sets have their dangers to them.

I prefer it with a group. Of course, it is more fun if you are with your friends or with a group. But it is still fine with me going solo. I'm getting used to it! :D

It depends on your mode i think. If you are riding with a trusted group its always perfect. But you know what old people say. " If you go alone, you go faster.. "

that's probably me too. i like group riding every now and then... but most of the time i just want to go out on my own. now if my wife would take up riding i'd probably switch to group.

In my opinion, riding with a group is more secure than solo. But group must be trustable. Forexample in our club we make group riding and some of our members have intercom so they warn eachother when there is a risk. :group:
