Hi Y'all
Obviously this is the "new member post". I'm 63 and I've ridden bikes, off and on, since I was 13. 'Guess that's about 50 years - give or take a century or two.
Ok .. why am I here? Because my wife wants a 2014 HD Tri Glide - Very Much. I still want to ride on two wheels - but, my age, my health and my wife says STOP, and Stop NOW! Just because I've been 'down' four times on my latest bike, and broke both feet, at different times. That's in the last year. I love to go fast, and lay the bike in the corner, until something scrapes. The Dr and the wife say I might not be so lucky the next time. So she wants a trike so we can still ride - but not on two wheels. Man!! ... I don't know about this. First question is - How do you leen a trike in a corner? Maybe slide the rear?
