Mums who ride?

[DRFTHR]

hello all i am currently waiting to pop (april 7) and i was wondering when fellow mums got back into riding (dirt bikes) i have a yz250 and im trying to weigh up wether its best for me to just give it up for now or to hold on to my bike ive been so good and have only touched it to clean it and i get my partner to give it a wee burn up the road (which brings tears to my eyes to watch coz i miss it so bad) but im just wondering what other mum's or mum's to be opinions are my way of lookin at it is i know its a really good bike and it works for me and i dont think it will be easy to save the money up to get another.

You should do what you want to do. The only person to stop yourself is you.

Do it!

My Mother rode her Triumph the day after I was born, to town to do the shopping.

I'm with Straightjacket.

In hindsight I wished I hadn't sold my bike and stopped at the time...lots more useful thoughts and opinions from other ladies on this thread

keep the bike. even if you dont ride it for the next 18 years. still keep the bike

If you don't need the money. Keep it. Hubby can babysit and you can go riding. Its really healthy to still maintain your interests....... Just cause you're having a baby, doesn't mean life should stop for you

[Gibbo89]

Don't mind if I do...

KEEP IT
my ex wrote mine off months after my first child was born and now I've only just replaced it 11 years on
who knows what life will bring but if you get upset just seeing go down the street without you you need that bike

Aha, do I suspect a milf alert???? heeheehee

Like the others have said, it's up to you. I'd be more concerned about your physical recuperation after childbirth taking priority, but I'm sure you don't need me to point that out! First bub? Childbirth reeeeeeeeaaaaallllllly takes it out of you. I could barely walk the 15 minute walk up to my local shops two weeks after giving birth to my first. Then again I might just be a pussy. Speaking of which, remember it will be tender for a while and a bike saddle ain't exactly a gel cushion...

Keep the bike, you don't know if you will be able to afford to replace it later.
Anyway, I am sure you will miss it too much if you give it up. You need to have a hobby and this will be a good fun way to let off steam.

Keep it and get a side car for the little one

I'm sorry, but I had to change the title of this thread. Every single time I saw it the MILF type riding went through my head

I've Just had a bub and I am planning to go for at least an hr ride hopefully this weekend, while bub has her afternoon nap and dad can babysit! She was born 2 weeks ago. Physically I feel pretty good, so I think its up to the individual. Don't sell your bike if you love it. I ain't, my fiancee is a hunter and i love motorbikes we have a healthy compromise. I won't put my foot down about him going hunting and he won't put his foot down about me riding LOL..... He did suggest that I'm not allowed to ride untill he has put a speed limiter in it (jokingly) since I haven't been on it since november But I am soo looking forward to getting back on it again!

Hi ya
keep the bike and keep an eye out for battery operated little bikes with the foot pedal so as soon as the little one is able get them on it and before you know it as it does go pretty fast they will be hitting the trails with you in tow moving up from jr50 to wanting your 250
Honda kids clubs are also an excellent thing to keep in mind for the trail bike families.
