I started riding when I was a baby dyke in the Navy stationed in San Diego in 1992. I didnt want a car, so I bought an old 1982 Suzuki 450 and after the guy I bought it from sat in my driveway and explained to me how to work everything, I self-taught the rest of the way. I guess I figured since I already knew how to drive a stick, riding a bike should be a piece of cake.
Man 21 year olds have no fear. lol
I had that bike for maybe a year and it broke down so I bought another old bike, a 1982 Honday Magna 750 and rode that one for a few years while living first in San Diego and then up near Fresno (NAS Lemoore, CA) until about 1997 when I decided to move back to IL. I very sadly traded in my bike for a car and then didnt ride again until 2010.
In 2010 I decided it was time to start riding again and I got a Suzuki Marauder 800:
I rode that around for a couple of years - until this past fall when I decided that I shouldnt ride any longer because I no longer had the strength to hold it up & I miss her already.
If I can afford to get another one, it will be a trike so I can still ride but dont have to worry about holding the bike up, balance issues, etc.
I never joined any clubs, but I considered it - and my dream bike is a Harley Dyna Wide Glide - but again, I would need a trike at this point if I was going to continue to ride, so my new dream is something similar to this:
