I was told that I would need to change from my shorts and into a pair of jeans, for safety.<span>\u00a0 <\/span>I was looking for a shirt to wear and I was told, \u2018You have that little tank top with the spaghetti straps.\u2019<span>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>Just because I would be riding on the back of a Harley, doesn\u2019t mean I needed to LOOK like I was some Harley chick and I went with a loose fitting white t-shirt.<\/p>\n<p>This was my second time on the back of his motorcycle. The first time I was in horrible amounts of back pain, but I was also in a crazy place in my head where the thought of doing something dangerous overrode that pain.<span>\u00a0 <\/span>Riding on the back of Harley is much different than what I was use to being a passenger on, which was a crotch rocket.<span>\u00a0 <\/span>When I was 18 years old we didn\u2019t have to wear a helmet, I wore short shorts, tank top and my white rebok hightops.<span>\u00a0 <\/span>I was screaming \u2018preppy bitch\u2019 in every possible way.<span>\u00a0 <\/span>Now I am older , not only did I want to wear full body armor with chain mail, I wanted a seat belt.<span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Being a passenger on this different type of motorcycle I finally got some of those unanswered questions I have always wondered about.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">\n1. Why do those Harley women wear small tank tops?<br \/>\nThe answer I came up with after being the back for 5 minutes:<span>\u00a0 <\/span>It\u2019s fucking hotter than HELL.<span>\u00a0 <\/span>My thoughtful and stylish choice of \u2018lose fitting white tshirt\u2019 wasn\u2019t a good one because as soon as the wind kicked up I couldn\u2019t help but notice the ample boobage that was on full display if I looked down.<span>\u00a0 <\/span>The parts that weren\u2019t <span>\u00a0<\/span>flying about were now stuck to my skin that was dripping with sweat.<span>\u00a0 <\/span>Next time I will wear the tank top\u2026with spaghetti straps.<\/p>\n<p>2. What\u2019s with the braids?<br \/>\nThe answer I came up with after pulling my hair out of the one he braided for me:<span>\u00a0 <\/span>Because my hair would be a tangled mess\u2026much like it was after the braid came out, but easier to brush out.<\/p>\n<p>3. Really? Boots\u2026what\u2019s the purpose?<br \/>\nThe answer I came up with after looking at myself during the ride:<span>\u00a0 <\/span>Because the adorable green and blue trail running shoes DO NOT look right while on a Harley.<\/p>\n<p>4. Why do they always eat in the bar?<br \/>\nThe answer after pulling in to get a bite to eat and removing my helmet:<span>\u00a0 <\/span>Because they stink and their hair is a mess\u2026not something someone wants to display in a restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>5. What\u2019s with the beer\/booze drinking?<br \/>\nThe answer I came up with:<span>\u00a0 <\/span>Because it\u2019s hotter than HELL out there and nothing tastes quite as good as a beer after a ride.<\/p>\n<p>I have yet to figure out the reason for the skimpy leather, but maybe that will come with the years of riding I hope we get to do.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Sadly though I don\u2019t fit in with the group so I probably won\u2019t be joining any groups and selling all I own to cross the lands on the open road on the back of Harley.<span>\u00a0 <\/span>The only thing that screamed \u201cHarley\u201d was the thing I was riding and the helmet that had it written across it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I went on a motorcycle ride after work last night.
