Complaining Females!

I'm starting to feel that I am the only biker whose girlfriend thinks biking is dangerous and won't let me do big or fast stuff. She has seen me come off and says "Don't you ever do that again!" - I of course say yes, because noone should ever argue with a woman! No female, unless they are a biker, seems to understand the rush dudes like us get from biking...

I wouldn't call someone a dude who has a girlfriend who "wont let me do big fast stuff." I would call that person a dud or a wuss!

I know some riders that when with their gf's are suddenly wimps (gf's choice) and when by themselves hang with the big boys. You aren't alone.

Be like me, get a girl who likes to go big too

Don't give in... she's just testing you. You are the man and the one who makes decisions...or should be. Sounds to me like you are the guy that buys her what she wants and has to beg for sex. Never give them what they want on their terms, never! YOU decide when you will give in and it should ALWAYS be on Your terms! As chauvinistic as this may sound it's absolutely right none the less... Women don't want wussies they want MEN.


Haha.... guess what... All women like to go BIG, they just say that size doesn't matter.

You need a new girlfriend. Try the inflatable variety and let her ride shotgun on the tandem.

Try bringing you 11 year old son home and explaining why he has to go have x-rays. The telling her that "yes I let him drop that rock". It's cool, I have a good wife. The next weekend were out again!
