Riding is the best way to express a part of me that I can't describe in words alone. I can't help but smile really big when I take off on my bike. After graduating from nursing school in 1995 and years of loving the ride..always on the back, I gave myself a present..riding lessons and a used Sportster. I knew I wanted to go bigger so I bought a Dyna Glide, 2000. After many miles and out to the 100th Anniversary of HD and back I wanted a Heritage. So, I rented one and took a trip by myself from CT and around the Great Lakes. Great experience.!In 2004 I bought a new red Heritage and have been to CA and back. I love every minute I am on my bike. All my "issues" seem to fade and get blown away by the wind. I feel a wonderful sense of empowerment and accomplishment since the beginning. I have done all this without a man in my life. Would love to share the road with a man I could call my partner and friend. Being 61, not a drinker or smoker I am finding it nearly impossible to find that like minded person. Well, for now I am doing great riding alone and with my friends. I ride my 11 year old grandaughter and she loves it. I will ride, stay strong into my eighties...or longer. Who knows? All I know is life is a one way street...no going back.

What an inspiration you are!To know that you are riding and doing it alone...awesome. Every man that has ever passed you by or left you alone is missing out on a hell of a woman!
