Dude, you weren't whining at all!! Plus, at least I wasn't puking during my back problems!  I'm scared to death that I might wind up with morning (all day) sickness someday!  

"Morning sickness" is a cruel, cruel euphemism!

rocketbunny, lately, I've been getting my 2 wheel fix by hauling the kiddo around in a Burley trailer behind my bike (gotta wait until they're 1).  A fast downhill *almost* feels as good as wicking it up on the backroads.

Does anyone have a lead on any blogs by moms who ride/tour?     Googling things like "motorcycling moms" etc just brings up pages of crap about how bikes are dangerous and that ANY GOOD MOTHER would SELL THAT THING RIGHT AWAY.

it's true: you should sell THAT THING and buy a Ural

Check out Fuzzygalore's blog if you haven't already. It's not really about being a mother who rides but that's what she is. Her munchkin just got a new dirt bike a few months ago. She makes an occasional appearance.

I've been reading it a lot lately!  I just dropped her an email, too, so hopefully I didn't sound like a creeper.

I must be the world's worst mom.  I'm already asking The Sprout if he wants to ride with mommy on the motorcycle.

FWIW, I never gave up riding. Not during pregnancies, not during child-raising. As soon as the kids were big enough to reach the footpegs, they rode with me.

I confess to looking forward to taking birth announcement pictures with blueberry in the Givi tail bag.

I can testify that lil Miles is growing up well adjusted, funny, and happy . . . . . all that noise musta been good for him!

At a recent get-together, he walked up to my wife, grabbed her by the hand, and wandered off with her . . . the kid's got it!

Commuting and recreational are two different things. Commuting should have priority - and it's women who ride at night and all weather - and they commute. SAFE commuter paths are the top priority. Hotdoggers can go to the boonies..
