If it's any comfort Mike, you know you're not on your own!

In an ideal world you would get her to do her test and get her own bike. That way you would have a pillion free ride, there would be two bikes to share the luggage (including all the make up & shoes) and you would both enjoy it.

In reality, Stinkwheels idea of B&B is the way to go.
I toured Ireland with hubby for our honeymoon last August, me on the XJR, him on the GSX1400. We stayed in B&B's and had a huge brekkie each morning which meant that we didn't really need to stop for lunch and had an evening meal out when we arrived at our next destination.

The XJR is a lovely bike for pillions (so I'm told) and to be honest although the bike will carry all the camping gear and wifey no probs, she will be more comfortable if she isn't surrounded by tents, sleeping bags, stoves etc.

Book the ferry, sort out a route, arrange accomodation and have a great holiday.

I argue that I don't want to take my missus out cos I like riding solo but she always wins last year we ended up in Scotland.

My missus complains that its not fair that my kids get to go out on the back of my bike and she don't. I'm afraid the chilblains do tie you down a bit. I don't get any grief WHEN I do get to go out on rideouts, luckily.

First thing I do when I buy a new bike is to screw off the pillion rests and fire them to the back of the garage,I'll look for them when I'm selling the bike.

So,if the missus asks to go on the bike I tell her it doesn't take passengers.

Fucked if I'd be bothered with all that co-pilot shit.

You lot are all so NASTY!

go with the compromise of B&B. My blokes been on about going tenting n stuff; I love going on the bike but the thought of carting all the tenting gear as well as clothes would just take away the fun.

You'll just have to explain that it's a "different" kind of holiday where she doesn't have to get tarted up on an evening or whatever so won't need all those clothes n shoes, etc.!

Failing that.... just give it up mate (cos we always win)

Bought a GSXR 750 k6 whilst my mrs was on business in America, to be fair I did send her a picture of her little suprise. She said "I dont want to go on the back of that thing !, When it arrived she said ok then I will have a go. This lasted approx 6 minutes then she said ok enough I want to go home now, perhaps if I had put the seat on the back instead of the hump she may have got on better.

Now off to the GP with a few mates and no mrs all its cost me is a girls sking trip in March !!!!!!

As with most things female - money usually sorts it out
