That's a lot of data!! For myself, I'm a terrible passenger even in the car. Scan has offered to take me for a ride on his bike, but I'm just not interested. He's a great rider - I've watched him become extremely agile on his bike over the past year, but I want to have control over what is happening while I ride. Plus, I get more experience under my belt when I'm doing to riding.

Cheers,
Loonette

I have logged a mediocre 50000kms or so on my bike and have never, ever been a passenger on a bike. Nor will I be - unless it is absolutely necessary AND the person I ride with is extremely capable. I'll be the first to admit it's a control issue. Call me crazy, but it's something about putting my life in someone else's hands.... :frusty: To those that can do it, good for you - you're stronger women than I.
