I do ride occasionally on the back of my man's bike, nice to sight see and all... but I just can't relax as much as I would like behind someone else. As this past summer was my first riding I can't say I'm completely at ease yet as I've still got a LOT to learn, but I still would rather ride my own any day... I took a riding class and got my license at 48 (promised myself I'd have my license by 50)... it's never too late if its what you wanna do (and I agree with those above - the rider on the back is braver by far)
