But as for actually falling asleep I would have thought that she would have been to afraid of falling off if she got to deep. No armrests and all. I guess I could strap her to me or the back rest. Ha ha ha

Just giving you a hard time. All in good fun.
I still on ocasion ride on the back of the Harley. It is quite comfy with the back rest. Still not sure I could fall asleep even straped down.

You guys have a safe ride down!

I bet it is comfy but I still don't think I could fall asleep. A buddy of ours ex-wife used to fall asleep on him on the back of a sport bike

She'd just lay over on his back and be gone after about 10 minutes of riding. He finally made her stop riding with him because he was afraid she'd fall off.

Guilty

When I use to 2up on the Harley I would fall a sleep but normally only on long straight roads. I was sandwiched in between the luggage, backrest, and husband so I was not too concerned of falling off. She must really trust your riding.

Diva.... I'll call ya Friday evening/night when we get settled in. Set something up with you and Jeeps. Looks like Trip won't be wanting to do the skyway/parkway, so ask Dave if he wants to escort????

Well we got here around 8 and damn what a shot. Prolly the longest straight run I have ever done. It was fun specially in the Kentucky Tn area doing about 80-85 through those curves was really fun. We hit a little patch of rain pretty heavy too, for a out 25 miles.

Hopefully the dragon will be dry. Can't wait till tomorrow to hit the Dragon. More to come tomorrow night..........
