ABOUT US
DATELINE: November 1, 2003 Welcome to RideMyOwn.com, the site dedicated to women across the world who RIDE THEIR OWN motorcycles (and those who desire to do so). While in its infancy, we hope this site will be a resource for all riders but especially women. I am a late-in-life woman rider. I took my first MSF course shortly before my 54th birthday. My husband already rode his own and it was his encouragement that pushed me into trying it myself. With 5 months under my belt, or should I say under my tires, I am on my second bike and loving every minute. I rode 750 miles on my first bike, a Harley-Davidson Sportster Hugger. I then traded that on my second bike, a 2003 Harley-Davidson Dyna Low Rider® (see photo right). In the first 6 months I managed to put over 3500 miles on it and at the end of 20 months I had over 20,000 miles. Several longer trips contributed to that total including the 2003 Pony Express Relay for Breast Cancer, a total of 18 days on the road. We traveled from Orlando to New York City via Chicago. After the closing ceremony in NYC, I proceeded -solo - to visit friends in PA and then worked my way home to St. Petersburg, FL on back roads. Another trip was 12 days from FL to PA and home again, Not So Great Trip With Some Great Moments.
My trips have slowed now in 2006, but I hope there will be more on the horizon. I am currently trying to sell my house and return to full-time RVing. You can follow my journey through this process by reading my BLOG. (You need to start at the end and read forward....) I'm on-line quite a bit - here is a list of my favorite forums (membership is free for the basic level):
