I was feeling the same way u were not to long ago. I was willing to ride with anyone. But believe me when I say this... It's better to ride alone than with someone that makes ur ride unpleasant. If u feel like cruising you can, and when u get the itch to hit the ton u don't have to be worrying about ur riding partner keeping up :p

Then again I've never ridden with a girl. I'm sure they're much more fun to ride with than guys :)

Youre WILLING to learn. Thats the key...

Ive met a few local women who ride older bikes, and they not only dont know ANYTHING about the mechanics of their machine but have zero interest in learning. I hear "thats HIS job" or "as long as it looks pretty Im happy" all the time.

The couple of female riders I do know that do work on or at least maintain their own bikes are a breath of fresh air.

If nobody here has ever had the fortune of working on a bike project along side an invariably cooler headed, and much more logical female counterpart DO IT ASAP. Seriously, its a real treat to dodge the "I am man, grunt, roar" shit every once and awhile and work on something with a woman who knows whats what or is at least willing to learn.

Brendami, you should talk directly with Tim and see if maybe you can head up a female centric board here. Would be cool if ya threw together a patch design for the ladies among us as well. Every other (almost) sub group has one...

(Theres a thread somewhere with all of them)

that would be cool! i might just have to do that :) problem is since i've been here i've run into a grand total of 4 women... not including myself. i'll brainstorm some ideas, see what i can come up with. if anyone else has some suggestions?

I would love to see more posts from the ladies, but they have to have a "thick skin" and a well developed sense of humor. 8) Otherwise the neanderthalic leg-humpers scare them off. (or they walk away shaking their head in disgust) ::)

If your a pig and you know it clap your hands.......

This is my husbands theme song.
 
Great thread!!! My sister in law wants to ride so bad she can hardly stand it. She started riding her sons little 90 cc Honda last summer and wants to go from there. She wants to ride with me too but I'm not sure how that would go over with my brother lol. I'll help her however I can though. @ WeberKid thats pretty cool!!
 
Cool photos. It is fun building something that you can use.
I sometimes get overwhelmed and frustrated with how complicated working on my bike becomes, there is so much to learn and it takes so much time. It seems to come second nature for my husband.
 
The issue I find is that women who are legit enthusiasts aren't into forums the same way guys are (hence low post counts, etc.). And the women who are into internet forums are usually annoying to both men and other women.

I remember these two women in another community I was in who ended up being complete succubuses. Both were post whores and the guys were into it at first. The smart guys eventually realized they were turds but a few idiots got suckered into various types of bullshit.

Anyhow, when I see a woman start post whoring on a forum that historically has all been guys, I cringe. Just like real life, gentlemen, the women you don't like won't leave you alone and the ones you do like aren't around enough. I'm not on this forum nearly as much as I should be but so far it seems like the women I've seen here fall into the latter category.
 
I knew a lady on here once... She was beautiful, she had a nice green CB350, and I would dream of wrenching beside her as the sunset.


Then she got married, had a kid, and crushed my poor little 16 year old heart.

It's because of her I have trust issues.

haha... female motorcyclists ROCK. My girlfriend loves to go on rides with me, the adrenaline gets her super excited... in the good way. Once my little 50 is done I'm going to teach her how to ride.

my girl built her own bicycle - but has no interest in motorcycles, "they're too complicated"
neat little album I took of her build here:

Wow that's amazing. I've built many bicycles but never built a frame although I'm a decent brazer. Have to admit, it is a huge step from bicycle wrenching to motorcycle wrenching since I've done both. At first I was very intimidated because a motorcycle is a thousand times more complicated but I learned slowly in small increments.

That does seem to be the case. I suspect it's because we raise our sons to play with legos, erector sets, and tinker toys and then hand our daughters dolls and toy kitchens.
 
I think a subforum is a cool idea, though i have no idea what i would have to post there wich i cannot post elsewhere. But if somebody would start it up, i would happily join in :D

Sadly, this is true.

My brother use to get mad at me for taking his Tonka trucks. Now I would be considered a delinquent as I used the truck it to run over a barbie whose head I had filled with ketchup. I also used my easy bake oven to cook caterpillars.

My mom just let me be me and even got me my own BB Gun, which was promptly taken away as I shot my brother in the butt with it. (He deserved it) All while wearing dresses.

hey rocan,
this is going to seem really weird... here goes.
when i first found this forum i was reading your thread because it said "built by a teen". somewhere in the beginning you were telling people that your "gf is awesome" and "you'd do anything for her". later on in the tread you were in college and there was some busty blonde in some pics and i was like whoa! what happened to the other girl he was so sweet when talking about her. :( anyways i guess my question is what happened? there was never any mention of a break up (that i can remember). wow this was weird. :p

^^^^^^^^Post one of what is guaranteed to be at least a 70 page thread dealing entirely with young master David's constant influx of sexually depraved young super models in training. ;) ;) ;)

To say the least, I put her behind me. She was a sweetheart and i never really fell out of love with her... I just had to move on. I guess it just wasn't meant to be, but it was grand while it lasted. It ended on our 6 month anniversary after an argument. we were overseas together in malta and the fight ended with her handing back a necklace I had given her... A simple arrow head on a string, but it means the world to me as I've had it since I was a child and worn it daily since. I put my heart and soul into that relationship and just couldn't stand to have her push it away like that. When I returned from my trip the first thing i did before i even got home was stopped at her house and waited for her. she had gotten really depressed because of the whole ordeal and her parents wouldn't let me near her. we talked for a while after that but it just wasn't the same. I spent much of my time at school messing around to try and get her out of my thoughts, but it never really compared and I felt I had lost the one. then my second semester I met a really sweet girl and we fooled around for a bit. I was really into her and complimented her constantly, and a day came when she told me that she thought I was just complimenting her to get in her pants and that she would rather not continue messing around with me before I hurt her. So I was left with a choice, ask her at that moment to be my girlfriend or lose her. Something deep down told me not to let go, and before she could tell me to piss off I kissed her and told her to be my girlfriend. three months later and we are still together.

Perhaps my second love. Perhaps my first love wasn't love. who knows. the first relationship was with a girl who was the exact opposite of me. In a way I had to change myself to be with her, and that is probably what made it so hard towards the end. The girl I am with now is so similar to me it is freaky.... she even was born 3 days after myself. Hopefully we will be together for some time to come. She has all the qualities a sensible man would look for in a wife, and add on to that the fact that she loves everything I do and it is a match made in heaven. But I've learned my lesson, so I'm taking it slow. Giving us space so that I can learn what I truly like about her. already I can tell that there is more to this relationship then my last one... in a way I guess I could say I loved my last girlfriend more as a child then as a lover. She was a selective mute (a case study, in fact) so I feel much of my love for her came from the dedication I had to learning about her, rather than simply loving her for who she was.

I should stop though, cover myself in grease, and say something manly about how women are hard to understand... I'm surrounded by sharks in a sea of testosterone, of course.

One night with me is a lifetime of satisfaction... but you wouldn't know... Only the ladies get to know that.
