My girlfriend was the one that got me interested. She wanted to get a bike and I was against the idea but I came around... and darn glad I did!
She rides her bike and I ride mine. Its a activity for both of us to enjoy instead of just one or the other of us and we love that.
On that note, time to go gear up and go for a ride out to get some lunch.

My girlfriend used to ride on back, have to say it was uncomfortable for me (very uncomfortable until we figured out that she should be putting her hands on the tank when we were stopping ) because I felt like I couldn't adjust my position enough to keep from cramping. I had mine less than year before my girlfriend was convinced she wanted her own . Best decision ever. I never get the " why do you always want to go ride" or "no, I don't want to take the bike". Its something that we really enjoy doing together. Its nice to have someone to ride with that knows what your going to do on the street too. We have been riding together almost 3 years so we always know what to expect from the other.

I won't answer the poll since I am the girlfriend, but I started riding on the back almost 5 years ago and I have never been able to understand how a girl could NOT want to ride. I'd had a couple short rides and always checked out the boys on bikes but my boyfriend is the one that really got me into it. I was happy on the back for a couple of years before I decided it was time to do it on my own, got my license and spent some more time on the back before I finally got mine this year. It got to where I was wanting to ride A LOT more than he did. I'm just pissed I waited this long.
I know my boyfriend is much happier without me behind him, and I'm much happier because I'm in control and I get to go ride whether he wants to or not.

I do both... I love to ride my own, but love to ride on the back of my guy's as well.. He will go speeds that I just won't do... lol...
Most of my female friends started out on back and then went to their own... best thing I ever did... now when I want to ride.. I ride.. I don't have to wait for him to be in the mood or to get home from work... it's my baby girl and when I wanna go.. she just goes
