I know that had to be one of the scariest moments in your life, and I'm glad to hear she's not seriously injured! I don't know what I'd do if that happened to my wife... I'd freak out!

1st thing: I'm glad she's okay (other than the wrist). Could've been a lot worse, but we always fall so we can get back up (remind her that).
2nd: Has she taken MSF? It was by far the best thing I've done since I started riding.

oh man, i could feel the panic for you as you turned around and didnt see her. once they said a rider was down, i know how you must have felt. i would have gone into panic mode too. glad everything appears to be ok, and get her to that MSF!

Thanks for the good stuff everybody, you guys are the best. Anyway, I told her I didn't wan't her to ride until the she got to a class. She told me to shove that idea, and says she's still going riding with us today [:@]. She's a stubborn one, Godbless her. We are going to go slow and comfy today, with her in front of me the whole time. The group that is going today includes two other beginners with permits. I am not taking her withmy other group that rides like hellhounds are on their trail. She said that when she wrecked, it made her very sharp all of a sudden. I told her I think it was adrenaline, because I was very sharp too on the ride home. Again, thanks for the possitive

Sorry to hear that, and glad you're both OK. I ride with my wife, and when I stop and wait my heart
starts to speed up a bit - although she's always come around the corner just as I am thinking about going back. Glad she's OK, and hopefully you can enjoy riding together again.

I always ride in front so I can see road hazards and slow down as needed, but the downside to having her behind me is now obvious. We have the chatterbox things now too, but not sure if that really helps either.

Hope she heals up quick,
Chris.

glad she's ok, voodoo!

if she's still insistent on riding before she takes a class, have her practice in a parking lot.
