The Birth of Wendy's World

Hello World! I've never blogged before! A blog virgin is what the world has at its hands here. My friend Stinki sent me a notification about her new blog and after checking it out I decided to try my hand (or should I say "hands") at it. I am a motorcycle rider. I used to refer to myself as a motorcycle enthusiast because I lived and breathed motorcycling. I am getting older now and have found some new interests and--truthfully--have gotten lazy. It's just easier these days to hop in the car. I used to wonder how people could just ride basically during vacation--now I know--firsthand. My husband passed away five years ago and I just happened to find almost two years ago someone I connected with who isn't a motorcycle rider. We do other things together that I had always wanted to do, so I just don't miss the intensity of motorcycling that I was used to before. I still want to ride so I will keep my motorcycle for as long as my body will allow. I started riding my own motorcycle in 1972, so it has been a long time. I started out with a little 175cc Honda off/on-road model and have owned two Harleys since then. I now ride an 800cc Honda Pacific Coast that used to belong to my husband. I had sold my Harley dresser just about a month before my husband got sick. I've learned that after healing, change can be good as life goes on.
