I never intended to ride my own motorcycle! I was perfectly happy riding on the back. In 2001, my son turned 16 and signed up for the MSF class. I knew he would be the youngest student in the class, so I went with him to keep him company. To my surprise, I loved riding and had a great time in class! I don't rack up a lot of miles each year, but I've had some amazing experiences, including riding in Australia, Europe, Alaska, to the H-D 100th celebration, and Daytona Bike Week. I'm looking forward to returning to Milwaukee next year, and going to the WOW Ride-In for the first time.
