Thank you for checking out my new video with Mama Two Wheels! Be sure to SUBSCRIBE if you want to see more of her! Check out our previous video together! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-y6BtMDgJIEc.html
I am a mother first and a biker 2nd. I waited till my youngest was done with school.. Then it was my turn to live my life! And loving every minute of it!...
I started riding a few yrs ago at age 62. For many of us who didn't ride as teens, the responsibility of raising a family meant that we decided to delay riding until the kids grew up, and we now want to have a bit of fun. Good for your Mom ... love her bike!
If I was riding with my mom, I would tell her that if she’s leading she should be on the inside of center line and follower rides on the right side. It’s a safety thing, yes? People would see you in their mirror before her and she could get hit first. Stagger riding. I would have been so frightened for her. But no offense really, you’ve definitely had more experience than I have, but your stagger riding looks opposite from what I’ve learned. It looks so AWESOME to have a lunch date/motorcycle ride with mom!!!
I rode for close to 20 years before I did the MSF class and got my endorsement. I was surprised how much I did NOT know after 20 years of riding that I learned in the MSF class. lol I highly recommend it
Lol, same! They changed the rule at my DMV for motorcycle permit renewals...I had to try for my license. If I failed, then I get to renew the permit that I had for over 20 years. Needless, to say after a few practice days in the course, I successfully passed. Yes, I learned the correct way to handle my gal.
Hi Jesse and Momma Two Wheels. I enjoyed hearing your story. I am a 56 year old woman and literally just got my license and a Harley Heritage. I have been practicing in a parking lot and doing quite well and then one day I got into my own head after hearing a story of a terrible motorcycle accident and couldn’t even get myself to ride that day. I’m gonna take a few days off to regroup and try again. You let me know that I am not alone and give me the courage to try again. I can’t believe all of the support from the “biker community ”. There are so many incredible, kind and encouraging people. I have confidence that I will overcome this set back. I’ll keep you posted. Thank you both! ❤️😊🏍
Don’t let the horror stories scare you off of riding. Accidents can happen no matter what you’re doing. You have to stay aware of your surroundings and use your head when your riding. If you get into riding, you’ll never regret taking the chance. Good luck. 👍🏻
Even after 150,000 miles and 40 years on a motorcycle stuff gets in my female head if I let it. It is a huge risk every time I ride anywhere. Just be sure, don't hesitate. Whether you're gassing it or braking it. You're the only person in control of you. You're in CONTROL, not your FEAR.
Your mom is great! I got my endorsement in 2001 after taking the Motorcycle Ohio class. I never got a bike or rode since. Fast forward to 2020, my kids are grown, I finally got a bike, and yes, muscle memory is a thing 😁 It is NEVER too late 👍🏻
Momma two wheels your advice is spot on I to always wanted to ride but waited until I retired at the age of 65 and have been riding for two years now and love it one of the best things I’ve ever done. Her Two Wheels love your channel watch you all the time please keep up the good work.
That's a great story. Sharing exactly this will help many others who are on the fence. You two wheels are a wonderful addition to motorcycling. Keep these a regular feature please.
Just passed the Motorcycle Ohio BRC this past Sunday the 27th 😎. I had never been on any motorized two wheel vehicle ever. I am 47 years young and can now check this off of my bucket list 😀. I bought a 2013 Harley Davidson Iron 883 in Matte black with V&H short shot exhaust and K&N air intake with a very comfortable mustang seat. Look out (Lexington)Ohio here I come lol
Mamma Two Wheels is AWESOME! What a great thing for you to share together. Maybe next year you can do a camping vlog together. Stay safe Jess. Peace and love.
I rode for several years and then got out of it for a few years. When I got back into riding I needed a motorcycle endorsement so I took the MSF class. I always recommend it to anyone looking to get into riding. Even with years of experience I learned things in the class that have already saved me from a lot of pain or death. The money paid for the class is well worth it.
I went through almost the exact same thing with my mom. The only difference is that by the time she really decided she wanted to do it, she had developed a condition which prevents her from driving a car, let alone riding a motorcycle. Enjoy your rides together and do it as often as you can. And as always, be safe.
I actually just started riding took a beginner course. I was so nervous that I was making mistakes. Then the instructors told me to relax and after a bit longer everythung clicked and u started enjoying it and passed the eval to gey my endorsement and once I got everything legal I have ridden it every day I worked and I got on highway I was a bit scared but I pushed threw it and i love it so much fun and I am 40 years old but have wanted to ride a motorcycle for years j only wished I did it sooner lol love ur channel
Hands down this video beats the camping one, wonderful story of Mom, it’s never too late to ride, my dream too, but honestly she doesn’t look a day over 40👍
My mom got a Yamaha 400 in her middle "30s and my sister started riding her 400 Yamaha in her mid "20s so when I hear women say they want to but don't I just have to shake my head in amazement. I've been riding since 18 and currently at 65 I have a stunning 2018 HD 107 Road Glide Ultra. Never too old or too young, just get on and learn how, it's a great way to travel.
MOMMA & BABY HAVE THE SAME EXPRESIVE VOICE. AWESOME. I TEACH, SO IT'S NICE TO HEAR EVEN EXPERIANCED RIDERS SHOULD TAKE THE EXP. REFRESHER COURSE, CAUSE IT BRINGS THE BACK MEMORY OF THE BRAIN BACK TO THE FRONT. THANKS FOR THE DUEL VLOG JESS & MOMMA
Awesome video, love the relationship you have with your mom. Cherish every moment and memory, these are the moments you'll always have to talk about. Keep up the great videos Jess, stay safe and stay strong. God bless you and your family!!!
I just started riding on the street this year at 45. I can relate to pretty much everything your mom said about wishing I had learned years ago. I've finally gotten comfortable on my Honda Rebel 250 but on the rare occasion that my hubby gets my sportster out for me, it's so scary! I hope in time I can become comfortable on it, too. Our schedules are so different that the opportunities to get on it have been few and far between. Our crazy weather hasn't helped either. I ride my Honda every chance I get. I really enjoy taking it to the parking lots and practicing. I bought the ride like a pro videos and he's helped me alot. Please keep these videos coming with your mom. They are some of my favorite ones.
You know, there seems to be a lot of pressure from other motorcyclists to get on bigger and bigger bikes. 250’s and 400’s are grown up bikes. Maybe not great on interstates but fine for pretty much anything else. If you are comfortable on the Rebel, you should ride the Rebel and don’t make any apologies. It’s supposed to be enjoyable.
Great video. Like your Mom I too was up in years when I started. Retired at 62, took the course, got my endorsement, and became addicted. It's never too late to start, just do it.
Hey Jess.. love yr work. Great to see your mom getting on two wheels as well. Will add another lovely dimension you your relationship hey. I'm 58 and been riding for 30 yrs now.. love it.. can't ever imagine not owning a motorcycle.. My father started riding in the early 40's in Europe. Back then it was a much more affordable option than a automobile. Hearing stories from him and mom about their adventures throughout Europe when they were young totally inspired me to want to ride. Though here in Australia as I was growing up my parents were reluctant to give their blessing for me to ride, least while I was living at home... I was 28 when I got my first bike. Was married and living in the country and I needed something for commuting to work as wife had the car. Once I'd acquired that first bike (it was 250 Aventure Bike) within a few weeks of riding to work and having fun off road as well, I was totally hooked. Can't imagine not riding now. Now my wife has started riding on back with me (3yrs now) and she loves it also. We're members of a fantastic club and enjoy the comraderie that goes with that. We're only a few weeks away from doing our first motorcycle camping tour (7 days around Victoria, Australia) together so that should be lots of fun. Hopefully this tour might highlight why touring together on two bikes would be easier, and with much encouragement from our closest friends and me already, wife may gather the courage to get her licence and her own bike. Wait and see. Otherwise I'll continue to enjoy her company on the back with me. Thanks for sharing with us. Keep up the great work. You seem to be a great advocate for responsible and safe motorcycling and of course, girls on two wheels. Cheers for now. Scoota.
Momma Two Wheels is so charming and sweet! I adore her! What a great video. I hope some day when my son is old enough that we will be able to ride together like this. It brings so much joy to my heart.
Jess, tell your mom I'm 65 and a new rider, watching you guys are great, keep the shiny side up! You're never too old, and we only go around once. Stay safe
My folks toured back in the day on a bike. I remember when I got my first bike and the shocked reaction. Well 8 years later they are living vicariously through me. They love the stories I have and seeing the pictures and videos I take from my trips. I love motorcycling. It's one of the few things that no matter where you are if you bump into a fellow rider you instantly have something in common.
Lol, my Mom is scared of my "death machine"😁 l dont think l could pay her to even ride with me! But she loves the way it looks😅😁😍. She is almost 80! Love her sooo much!
Roy Frye My mom is the same. She can’t stand that I ride and would never get on my bike. She watched one of my videos the other day and called me just to tell me that I didn’t need to talk with my hands so much, it’s to dangerous! 🤣
@@RYANo_Moto lmao! Sounds exact like mine! Told her i usually am going 85 on it to work only to keep from getting run over, she was like laaaaaaalaaa with her fingers in her ears!!😅😅
It’s wonderful to see you having a good time with your mom! I wish my son was a thousand miles closer. First morning its down to 70 degrees here, time to go for a ride on my Heritage. Yay!
Great video. I wanted to ride since I was 16, but life got in the way. Finally at 42 I’m riding and loving it. Keep the great content coming. “ life’s to short not to ride”
Hello out there yes I'm nearly 63 years and I have been riding from age 16 an still do Lv rideing all over th place in town it is quicker than me Ute to get around just don't come off it hurts ouch, ps keep riding an having are good time doing it freedom ( :
Awesome video/story! I grew up wanting to ride with my dad. He moved away and I settled on being a passenger. This year my 18 yr old daughter said she wanted to ride! At 47 I looked at her and said let’s do this thing!! We took the MSF and we are loving it!!! Have fun and stay safe ladies!!
So many ladies I have met over the years who got married out of High School and had children then most went Bar hopping thinking they missed out on all the fun and are dying to make up for all the missed fun,... But then there is those exceptions like your special Mama Two Wheels who would rather be on her motorcycle than in a bar getting drunk raising hell,.... Your lucky to have her on the road with you.
What a great, inspirational video. God bless you and your mom. My wife got her motorcycle endorsement in 2009. Her first group ride was Rolling Thunder. About 6 years ago she rode solo from southeastern NY out to Colorado Springs and back. The weather was much like your ride to Florida. Keep up the great work on your videos.
I got my first bike after I got out of the service in the late 70's. They didn't have motorcycle safety classes back then. I sold the bike in 1982 to get money for a down payment on a house. Then I was in a trucking accident lost one leg and busted up everything else. I was laid up for a year and gave up my bike license. Didn't figure I'd ever ride again. In my mid 50's I bought a fatboy and started riding again. I took the class here in PA. I rode the fatboy for several years then sold it and bought an electraglide classic. Love riding with friends but more by myself exploring new roads. By the way, Mama Two Wheels is hot. Hey, I'm 66 I'm not dead. Just saying. Hope to see more of her in future videos.
Dad bought a bike early. Stopped riding it early. Probably rode for a year total. He's legally blind now so that door is closed. He raised my sister and I (in the short span he was the everyday dad) like farm kids. Ride a truck, tractor, lawnmower, bicycle, 3 wheeler, horse, combine, trailer, train, motorcycle, ANYTHING but a tart or deuscubag. So when I thought of riding, it was a small step mentally. The shift was translating riding into a larger world. Saddle up, pick a point of the compass, and return by Monday. I miss those days. The bike became a financial drain when my daughter was little and the wife wanted horses. Now the girl is grown and the wife is gone. I'm dreaming of a Super Tenere 1200, but haven't worked up the nerve for the payments. Rode an Aprilia Compenord 1200, and it's about the right size for me. But the Aprilia is much like my ex-wife April: power hungry and hard on the balls. I think something else would be better suited to me. My daughter desperately wants to ride. She gets upside down in her finances every three months, so she's holding off. She's destroyed four cars in as many years, so her driving skills (let alone her riding) needs to improve. At 5'1" finding a bike she can ride is something of a challenge. They can be found, just not as often as a 5'5" girl can. In the beginning she wanted to ride horses. I told her, "Oh no! Horse people are vicious! Got an ex-wife and ex-girlfriend to prove it. YOU will be a biker, my dear! DAD HAS SPOKEN!"
Today was the first time my wife sat down and watched a entire video then said that chick is bad ass. And I then next few words was I wanted to ride like her to. I am so stoked for that I feel like a kid on Christmas morning with a smile from ear to ear. Thanks for posting thanks for posting with your mum keep it up 👍🏽
Loved seeing your Mom! It’s great she overcame her fears. I love seeing how happy she is to be riding! I’m going to show my GF this video. She has her permit now and has taken a Learn to Ride course but just barely failed her license test at the end. She put her foot down on the U-turn and a couple other small things. The test is really hard in Minnesota. But I think it would help her to see your Mom. And OMG,the resemblance of you two!!! But honestly she looks like your slightly older sister, not Mom. 😊
Loved the video. Me, myself i got the passion to bikes from my grandad. Hes been riding motorcycle since he was 15 and hes 72 now. Your mum did really well in getting all together and hoping on the bike girl ✌️
It looks to me like you and momma already know all you need to know about riding. It warms my heart to see you two so close and enjoying life together! Thanks so much for sharing!
More than you’ll ever know, I sincerely appreciate you created this video with your mother. Just began riding a couple of months ago (52yrs old) and have ridden almost 800 miles. I too became afraid, yet I love this! It’s the best decision I’ve ever made for myself. 🏍💕🏍💕 Looking forward to riding this weekend.
“We have nothing to fear, but fear itself” and car drivers, words for motorcyclists to live by. Credit to1933 quote from Franklin D. Roosevelt. Respect the hostile motorcycling environment , know and ride within your limits and you may just “live long and prosper” Spock from Star Trek. On two wheels near daily last 15 years, now 69, have enjoyed every minute of it except the pain of a self caused single vehicle(mc) incident at the 4 year point. Learned a lot from that, and it’s no doubt saved me numerous times. Can’t be cocky nor complacent on two wheels. riding does add to life and may tend to keep us young. Be safe out there. . .
I bought my first Harley when I was in my mid 20's and we rode everywhere. Things changed I was made an offer on my bike I took it and said maybe next year I'll get another one. That lasted almost 30 years. I bought my 2020 Road King this spring and it's almost like I've never ridden. Learning all over is a bitch. Doesn't help my 150 foot driveways is all limestone. Great video and thanks for sharing.
I started riding at 48 and gave myself a year to either like it or give it up. I finally really enjoy it!! I 100% relate to your mom's experience. Us middle aged new riders are not alone! Loved your interview and her honesty,..keep me motivated.
I turned 50 in March. It's been a lifelong dream for me to learn to ride. I've rode on the back all my life. Just found your channel and love it. Hope to be on the road before 51.
That's so great..your Mom is awesome and obviously brave..not afraid to try new things. Must be wonderful to have your Mom love the hobby you love. Very inspirational indeed.
It's incredible how much of your local riding areas look similar to parts of Georgia and South Carolina. Beautiful to see the bond in the Mother and Daughter Riding.
Your a lucky girl. Mama is awesome. I didn't get my endorsement until I was 60, and on top of my bucket list is riding with my son and my daughter who both ride. They live in other states so it's a challenge. It's going to happen one day.
What a beautiful and sweet mother you have ..! And can recognize that I was thinking and dreaming of getting my motorcycle license for decades, but only got it when I was in my 40s ..! Today I wish I had ridden a motorcycle in my young days in the 80s ..!
Congratulations on the family time we were lucky enough to share with you. New rider advice? Practice, practice, practice. Learn and master the essential riding techniques of slow speed maneouvering to include the slow race; 180 u-turns; 90 degree turns from a stop. Head and eyes, friction zone and some rear break.
Awesome story. I had three lady riders in my MSF. One older lady that wanted to ride with her friends, another lady my age that wanted her own bike and a young Air Force veteran that wanted to learn to ride. It is really cool to see everyone’s different riding stories.
Your mom sounds like a riot to be around! You ladies made me smile!! B.T.W are you sure thats your mom, not sister?😁👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Stay safe n fun Ladies 2 wheels!
Great video. Glad she did it. I learned when I was 23 and there was almost no ladies riding bikes. But I just went for it. I’m 54 and I’ve never looked back. I didn’t take the motorcycle course back then, it was way too expensive and only had enough money for a bike and the basic gear and so I just pursued my dream. Today, motorcycles have been in my life more then I ever dreamed! I have worked at a motorcycle shop as a parts person and sales for over 13 years, I have had 29 bikes in my time and I have gotten the privilege of being able test ride bikes where I work and so have been able to ride probably 300 or so different bikes in my years. I’m so happy to see so many ladies riding and I’ve been so happy to share my experience and help many ladies get into riding. My Mom is 84 , so she’s past learning , but what a great thing you have in common with your Mom!
Awesome video. Go Mom! I started riding last year at 57. Did not grow up around bikes but wanted to learn how to ride. I’ve been riding for a little over a year. After 17,000 miles I still love it. It took a while to get comfortable riding. I love going out and taking in the scenery . Best thing I’ve done for me in a long time. Thanks so much for continuing to share your riding and life with the rest of us!
Really glad that you could capture this moment with your mother and look back at it in the future. i can tell your mother is proud of the woman you grew into, your smiles warm my heart ❤️ 🤧
Mama Two Wheels you are a beautiful BAMF! You two have a great relationship that reminds me of me and my mom. We inspire and support our mothers as much as they inspire us, IMO. Great video ladies! Edit: Please do more vids together! Need more positivity in my RU-vid!
Love this video. I’ve ridden Yamaha and Honda off and on for 25 years, dirt bike and street bike. I just bought my first Harley Road King, absolutely love it. I’m so glad to be back out riding. My wife has completely jumped in and we ride 2 up, got the gear, etc…. What a great time.
I LOVE this story, I love your mom, I love that she finally followed her dream. I love that you ride together. You are so lucky to have such a cool mom.
Woohoo! I'm so jealous that you are a Momma-Daughter duo! I learned to ride @ age 46 , now 52. My daughter is 22 and I would love for her to learn to ride but I don't think that will happen since she was involved in a traumatic Razor accident last year. SO happy for you gals though!! Ride on wind sisters!!
You ladies rock! WOuld love the opportunity to ride with you guys. 27th was 1 year riding for my oldest son and I. In Montana you don't get the full year. Keep up the great work with your channel Jess. Ride safe.
Good story........Pizza looked awesome........nothing like enjoying a day together on motorcycle with your mom. I at 64 just got back into riding, been since high school.......yup...sure wish i had done it sooner.....job and raising a family overruled at the time.
