Well, it's official! After just one short week of ownership, the wife s comfortable enough to go out on her own. She left me today and did a 40 mile ride all by herself, so proud of her. One week in and 375 miles later, we are both so happy we took the plunge! Ryde on everyone!

Just one, can't afford two machines at this time. I'm just excited for her losing her fear about taking it by herself. She has done so great in such a short time, I'm proud of her. I did mention that now if she drives it solo, she has to learn to clean it, we'll see how that goes!

Good Luck with that cleaning part!!! My wife took to it right away, the riding part not the cleaning part. She takes off on it solo all the time!!! Glad to see that the both of you are enjoying the ride, that's what it's all about.
