Motorcycle Adventure of the Week: Myrtle Beach


Let me come up for air!!!  It’s been quiet in blog land—at least at Christine’s Corner since this motorcycle rider has been out of town.  Out of town, you say?  Yes, sigh, I was forced to take a weekend for the end of Bike Week at Myrtle Beach!!

Unfortunately, my motorcycles are safe and sound—in my garage.  *Gasp* again—no, I didn’t rent a bike but rather rode on the back!!  Do I have enough fingers on my hand to count back the months since I rode on the back??  LOL….

Actually, I do (but barely).  The last time I was on back was in March—I rode on the back in California.  Before then, it was in September when I got my Fatboy.

Some of my friends are howling!  It’s all good, however.  Well, except I do miss the front seat.  Literally!  The back pillion is just not as comfortable no matter how many times you slice and dice the concept!    It doesn’t quite cradle my behind as well as the front seat, ya know??

However, there are benefits on being on back.  For one, I can check out the scenery and not pay as much attention to the road ahead.  I’d forgotten how beautiful and green the land around me was.  The tall pine trees…and the tall pine tree pollen!!  

Plus being back in the south is nice!!  Except now I have this drawl back!!  

Oh well, I can think of worse things to complain about, eh??

I’ll have some Myrtle Beach pics up to post soon along with a few stories….

Keep the Shiny Side Up!

Hi Christine,

Sounds like you had fun. Can't wait to see the pictures you took.

Wow - I reckon it has been at least 4 years since I have been on the back of a bike.

Anyway, looking forward to the pix Christine!!
