My daughter has become my riding buddy, she got her 'm' license last spring and I found a 1978 Honda CM185T in REALLY good shape for her to learn on. Practice, practice, practice. On a warm Sunday a few weeks ago we did the longest ride for her so far, almost 30 miles. Impressive considering up to that point the best we did was maybe 7.
