No issues at all regarding going out on the bike. we mainly go out together, he is a lot faster so we have pre agreed meet points, I'm never that far behind. If one of us can go out and not the other so be it. We've been together 36 years and riding together for all of that time, I guess it helps it's something we both enjoy. I do feel a tiniest bit guilty though as I have three bikes in the garage to his one but I manage to live with it!!:wink:
Being on my own has its ups I guess in the fact I can do as I please . I've still not quite got the hang of it as I naturally have this in built thing of looking after someone not well but I try my best... I do find my self having one sided chats with my critters and the bikes quite alot. Am worried il turn into the crazy cat lady without the cats
Yeah Mel.....without the cats, who's a perfectly sane woman supposed to talk to? I hope they're still giving you all the right answers and advice you need tho.......
I try and get out for a blast first thing in the morn if poss...While Doris is still drooling into the Duvet...:tongue:
Careful forward planning and general devious craftiness. You need to make her feel guilty when you're NOT on the bike. Buy her presents, a new car's good for MANY brownie points, encourage her to go on shopping trips or weekends away with her girly friends. Tell her she looks like she just walked off Scott Schumann's fashion blog. Put your arms around her waist and tell her you love her (I know that's a bit of an ask but think of England and the new midfield line-up) Buy her little gifts when you're out on the bike (even a Mars Bar's better than nothing) What's she good at cooking that takes ages? Suggest it for dinner and then ask if she minds you nipping out on the bike while she cooks it. In short, treat her like a woman. We all know that they're the fairer sex but they're EASY to dupe and once you've duped her into thinking that YOU going out on the bike was HER idea, you've cracked it. Be sneaky, you owe it to your Ducati. ps, be careful with the "arms around waist/I love you" bit. It can delay getting out on bike if you overdo it. :wink: (I've been married to my lovely wife for thirty years and three months, BTW)
Really .. It's reverse psychology we have your number... although none of that new car stuff would impress me Nor does treat them mean to keep them keen However a milky bar ....
Good advice but start slow or she will think your having an affair and then your rides outs will be well and truely FUBAR!
