Haven't read the thread, so maybe someone else said this --
My bet is that she's worried about the other traffic on the road. The motorcycle worried her because that's where you use it -- on the road among cars and trucks. The mountain bike wasn't as much of an issue because you'd use it off-road (whether you actually do or not). Now you're talking about sharing the road with motor vehicles again.
Valid concern, I'd say, if I view it like that.
