Introduction

I'm just a beginning rider looking for short rides to take while I build up my confidence on the bike.

Additional information:

My whole family rides, so this is something I'd like to do together with my mom and dad.

Tell us about your bike, or bikes.

I have a 1985 Honda rebel - a hand-me-down from my dad.

What is your riding experience level (never ridden, novice, etc.)

I am a rough beginner. Most of my riding has been done in parking lots and residential streets.

What are you looking for in a riding group?

Looking for a group I can ride with until I get comfortable on my bike. I would love short rides with people who don't mind holding a beginner's hand for a little while.

  • Melinda belated welcome. A coupld of us go out riding together sometime. Just rides to help new riders build confidence. Several times we don't post just get together. Shoot me an e-mail anytime.

  • WhooHoo another woman rider! You are in good company Melinda. I am also a fairly new rider and the kind folks here at AMRG have been beyond supportive. Hope to see you at one of the meetups.

  • Welcome to AMRG! We have rides especially set up for "newbies", and even the regular rides will have a group leader for those who are newbies. I personally lead the "young'uns", regardless of age. When you respond for a ride, let us know you're new and we'll help you along. Everybody started sometime! Mike 'Mid-Day" Miller

  • Welcome Melinda, good to have you with us.

  • Hello, and welcome. I took a long break after an accident in 1975, so getting back in the saddle was an interesting journey, and thank God, way short of starting new. Have fun, and listen to the old ones. They know what it takes to have fun and be safe.
