I have put 25,000 miles on solo. I've...I ride solo. I have put 25,000 miles on solo. I've don't have to synch my bladder with anyone else; I ride as much as little as I want; I stop when and where I desire; I can tour or just ride. I can have uninterrupted thoughts. <BR/><BR/>I must negotiate most of the other areas of my life, I ride to be one with me. My husband is returning to riding and others feel relieved that I'll have someone to ride with. But it isn't true, really. I can see us doing an occasional day ride together but ALL of my multi-day trips will continue to be solo. They are solo for reasons that have nothing to do with whether he rides or not. I hear family (extended) and friend's negative views about a woman out there alone, but I remind them that I feel less safe walking the streets than I do on a bike.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the link!Sojourner's Moto Taleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235661849993752840noreply@blogger.com
