Forum,
I've been riding bikes off and on for the last 25 years or so but have never really done much highway riding, mostly country roads and 2 lane highways. I recently moved to a bigger city and from time to time need to ride on the Interstate. I see bikes crusing up and down the highway all the time and the riders seem so comfortable and relaxed, me, not white knuckles or anything but the pucker factor is certainly up there. I just put a winshield on and that helps quite a bit but theres still alot of turbulence from cars and especially 18 wheelers, do you guys have any riding tips that would help me loosen up a little on the highways? I would like to take some longer trips and venture out a little more, just not real excited about being on the highways.
Thanks,
bh
