Easy Rider- Dream Come True

When Dan and I got married he reluctantly sold his old motorcycle. We didn't have room for it and it needed some work on it that we couldn't afford at the time- so we donated it! He has always yearned for another one. We even talked about when we were old that we would tour on our motorcycles.

With the move to San Clemente, Dan is going to have to commute to his job in Irvine.  I need the car with the boys, but he couldn't ride his bicycle. We toyed with getting an electric car so he could ride in the carpool lane, but found them to be too expensive. A motorcycle would be fuel efficient, able to ride in the carpool lane, affordable and a dream come true. How can you go wrong with that?

Dan got his motorcycle license, took a safety course on ridding and was good to go. He is now the proud owner of a 2014 Honda CXT 700. It gets great gas mileage and puts a smile on his face. He has done some alterations on it, but I don't have a picture of that yet- so here is the base version!

 Boys are loving it too


 He got me a helmet, jacket and boots to ride along!
Off to ride!
