I went out for a ride with a friend. It is her first year riding too, and she has a lot less experience than I do, but it was great to see the smile on her face at the end!! I gave her a couple of pointers about throttle control and speed limits, and she accepted my comments gratefully. I am far from a "good" rider, because I lack years of experience that some of my other friends have, but it is nice to pass on what I know to someone too!
Sadly, my assistant just called. A fellow rider we haven't been able to identify yet, was killed tonight by a guy not stopping for the stop sign. She was a witness, poor thing. She is so upset, and I don't blame her in the least. She was so worried it was Thomas or I, but relieved when it wasn't, but saddened when the man died practically in her arms.
Life is fragile.
