Right thats it........ buy Mrs Snuffles a bike............spend hours nuturing her shaky riding skills...........coax her onto the road.......... and then find out she's probably going to be a better rider than I am......... :argh:

Now i just need to find ways of making her worse again....... any suggestions.

Stick a nail in her tyre... then when you're out she'll gradually go slower and slower, until she stops, and you ride off laughing hysterically.

Problem solved.

Well for starters you should have got her a GN to start with and then you wouldn't have this problem! :dodge: (p/t)

Or what you could do is start picking on all her inadequacies (sp?) as a rider and then go right into the art of counter steering etc, once that's confused her take her on a long ride and watch the enthusiasm wane (sp?) that'd slow her down!
But in all reality you should probably be pleased she's doing so well, its a sign of how well her teacher taught her, and from what i've read lately you should be pleased that your relationship is still in tact AFTER teaching her the basics! Keep up the good work mate! :niceone:

Make her worse (or st least appear that way) by improving your own skill? Mind you - she may just be better than you you.... no matter how much effort you put in! :bleh:

I got Mrs Nudie a VTR -250 and now she leaves my NZ-250 in the dust.....

The 1000cc bike arrives in the weekend....and my male ego will be restored...

Tell her the bike makes her arse look big when she rides fast. Something to do with Doppler shift.

could feed her up on laxatives and make her keep stopping for a squirt all the time ?

pull out some of the spark plug HT leads on a couple of the cylinders. But as long as you taught her you can still pride yourself at your accomplishment.

lol i dont know about fearing that the missus will be a better rider, but i reckon if you make sure she is always following you that'd be a good start.....:sweatdrop

Just get her off that small bike ASAP and onto a large road bike then there will not be the incentive to corner fast to keep up and then she can hide behind the horsepower on the straights and forget about learning to corner right like the rest of you guys! :dodge:
