I didn't quite get my arms around him. It's a HD touring bike, so I held onto the strap and put my arms on my legs when I got more comfortable. It's not really set up to hang on to the driver. We passed some speed bikes and he told me to be thankful I wasn't on the back of one of those. I did have my legs close to him. I was worried about getting him off balance.

He also moved the foot pegs down for me, which I appreciated. On the first bike he owned since we've been married, they were up so high, I looked like a grasshopper.

He's also sent me a text today, so he definitely came back a different person than he went. He said they may do a trip next month. If it is the same group of guys, I will probably push him out the door!

I will say that he is beyond words with this motorcycle. He said it is the nicest one he has ever owned and he doesn't think he will ever have the need to buy another one because it has everything he wants already.
