Perma-Grin

by Teresa

My first ride was in a parking lot near my boyfriend's shop where he built my bike. I have been on a motorcycle since I was little and rode around the driveway on the tank of my Dad's bike. I grew up in Sturgis, SD, the home of the biggest rally. Point is, I feel like I was destined to have my own bike....

Then here I was, sitting on it, getting ready to take off. My boyfriend was coaching me on how to get started. I was nervous but couldn't wait! I had already pictured all the bad scenarios in my head and just went for it. It was a little jerky at first. Once I got going though, I couldn't wipe the grin off my face. My boyfriend took pictures and I didn't want to stop. I wanted to ride right out on the road and keep on going! I can't wait for warmer weather to get back out there.
