Introduction

I am a hard working woman. I advocate for people who have disabilities. I am a pilot. I fly with & teach for the USAF AUX. I rescue dogs. I teach dog obedience. I am a daughter, sister, friend and wife. I ride because it is cheaper that therapy.

How did you get started riding motorcycles?

I started off with scooters. A friend of mine who is an NIU Motorcycle Instructor strongly suggested I ride my 150cc legally (I didn't know the law changed). So I took the course. My uncle helped me out with obtaining my Ninja. The rest is History.

How long have you been riding motorcycles?

Since 2008. My rider safety course was during the rainiest weekend of the year. Towns were flooding, the wind was blowing and it was literally raining, up. I truly value that experience. I not afraid of riding in the rain anymore.

What would you like to get out of Rocket Chic Motorcycle Group?

Leave the hubby at home and just do my own thing with the girls. Let my hair down. Meet fellow female riders. Ride to new places. Increase my riding skills and experiences. Just have a great time riding.

Do you have any suggestions as to where we can all ride to?

I will ride to just about anywhere for good BBQ.

Enjoy golfing and riding.

Love to golf and ride? Here are a few pics to show you how I did it this year. The key, is to ensure that you have the rain cover on the clubs securely.


Winter is Officially HERE!

I hope that everyone rode and had a great summer.

REVIEW: 29th Annual Cycle World Int'l M/C Shows

Went to the Rosement show on Sunday (21 Feb 2010) @ 1230-4pm
Traffic was very heavy going in the parking lot (pay for the parking prior to entering the show).
Didn't see BMW dealerships out there. Very good show of basic bikes from local dealerships. Nothing worth buying (not great price deals) anythng...low end products to ...very high end. No bargains.

Great gadget ...way way to expensive $300 bucks.
