Yesterday, oh my god. My first big ride!!! Scott (boyfriend )and I rode about 80 miles, through gorgeous country rodes. I got to get up to 5th gear, 65mph. It was really exciting.
Then we rode our bikes to a big park called Turners. There was a party/bbq/biker event for Thunder over Louisville (kick off of Derby sort of, TONS of fireworks - actually I think its the largest fireworks show in the US). We had a lot of fun, and of course everyone wanted to see my bike, and were excited to see a chick on a bike .
Our plan was to leave Scotts bike there, and he would ride mine (with me on the back) home. Since I had never ridden in night, and traffic is horendous for this event. I got the guts to just ride my own home. It turned out really well! Riding at night is fun/exciting/and nerve wracking lol.
We are going for a ride in a little bit, the weather is perfect!
I will get some pics soon.
Scott got a video camera, and is mounting it to his motorcycle. Then we can do video's around town
