Does anyone really like riding 2 up?

I love having the wife along, but she rides her own scoot. We are a club-of-two!
However we have a baby come back to roost for a year, maybe two and guess what, she likes to ride so I am back to two-up for awhile. Been riding solo for 5 years now and just getting used to it again. Put on 500 miles Saturday and that didn't faze the duaghter much so at least she's a trooper!

I would rather ride solo.
The extra weight of the wife, which usually shifts in the wrong direction at the wrong time, is stressfull and I worry about her getting hurt if we get in a wreck. I like the blow-up doll option listed above but I find that they tend to get a little boring when the conversation gets too intellectual.
I do enjoy the back massages and the extra comfy back support from the wife. Obviously, I love to have her with me also.

Love having my wife with me. Riding along looking over the countryside, and when she reaches up and runs her hands across my shoulders or down my sides it gives off a comforting feeling that only those of us who are close to our ladies can express. That being said I don't mind taking off by myself but I also think quite often when solo how nice it would be to have my wife with me.

My SO is new to the cruising bike business. I like having her with me, but she's still a little nervous about being a passenger. So, I try and be extra cautious and smooth with her on the bike. That means, of course, I'm concentrating harder, so it's a good thing she does ride with me. I just like being with her doing anything, so I'm glad she's trying to learn to enjoy the bike.

If I didn't have my wife with me, I'd probably always be ridin' alone, as it's such a PIA to configure with other's where and when to meet to go for a ride, together and really even then you are still ridin' alone.

I like it. Fortnate my wife use to ride so she knows how to be great passenger twistees, superslab and a extra set of eys in heavy traffic.
Plus she helps clean the bike. What can I say I like her.

Two-ups the only way for me. I've been riding most of my life but the best started when we got the Ultra and my wife joined me. 8 years and 80K later I can honestly say these have been the best years of our marriage. We will be celebrating 40 years togather April 24.
