Hi Barb, congrats on the new ride. Sure is pretty. If I may make a suggestion for your riding pleasure and safety, take a proper riding course from a qualified instructor. I showed Happy Hobo all the basics to ride but she wanted to get trained at a riding school. Mighty fine idea as I was also teaching her my bad habits. I also took the training after wheeling around on my own bikes for 30+ years and did learn a lot. Not trying to shoot your hubby down but an instructor has the training experience to correct a potential unsafe habit while riding. They have so many helpful hints that make riding even more of a pleasure than I thought possible. Do the course, get all the safety gear you can(if you don't have it now)and try to ride the wheels off that bike. Betcha can't.
