When I get my new Dyna, my husband will ride it home. I will spend some time in a parking lot getting the feel of the added weight before I get out amongst the people.

Police say it’s the second-time in two days Montgomery County motorcycle riders have been killed while driving their new cycles home.

I think anyone who rides a motorcycle in the Houston area has a secret death wish.

Sounds like Montgomery County is in need of more riders attending MSF courses.

I think I read that deaths per million hours is 10 times higher for people on motorcycles than in cars. That's why I drive really defensive.

When I got my first bike, over 20 years ago, the shop made me ride a moped in the parking lot for an hour, then they made me ride a 250 for an hour before they would let me leave the lot with my new bike. I though it was funny at the time, but they said they wanted to make sure I could ride before they let me on the road.

If you make your first year of riding a motorcycle without getting creamed, you might have a chance.
