| For Debbie (Oscar's Mom) and anyone else who rides motorcycles! Blue Ridge Parkway! Actually, we were on the Parkway for a couple hours, and this video is of the road down to Mt. Airy called Orchard Gap. It's a bunch of hairpin turns near the top, and it's quite exciting! You can probably tell by my laughter and WHOOO HOOOOOs!! http://www.dropshots.com/day.php?use...1&ctime=161910 Debbie, I would love to take you and Dewaine up here someday! Enjoy! HUGS!

| That's so cool. It was great to hear the *potato*, *Potato* of your harley! I started leaning round the corners in time with the video! LOL. That looks like soo much fun. I can't imagine taking my yorks on my bike! How do you do it? Do they go down your jacket or do you use the little pouches that go on your front like the kiddy carrier things? Do you do carry them when you're the driver or only when you're pillion?

| I don't drive, but she could go up front too! Quote:
Wosie has a carry bag that she has ridden in since she was 5 months old. She loves it. I took her for the first time in April, and she has been a couple times since then. She is practicing for our Smokey Mts. trip with Debbie and Oscar June 2, and I know she will have a blast! Debbie has a different system for Oscar, and I will let her explain it and post a pic so you can see. And Deb, I will most definitely take video of our ride and of Oscar and Wosie and everything else that I can, lol! Here's a video of Wosie's first ride! http://www.dropshots.com/day.php?use...cdate=20060414

| I love the video! I also love riding on the Blue Ridge Parkway...a few years back I won the use of a BMW Z3 convertible for the weekend and hubby and I rode from Asheville to Gatlinburg on the Blue Ridge! It was great. I love the hairpin curve! My dad used to say those were turns where you would meet yourself going around them!

| He, he, he!!! We always laugh when we go around those curves and say "This curve is so tight you can reach around and kiss your own hiney goodbye!" What I use for Oscar on the bike is a very padded seatbelt harness that I got at Petsmart. It has a short leash type strap that has a fastener on the end of it. The leash strap is about a foot long. I hook the fastener to my belt buckle and he rides out on my leg! He loves to ride!!!

| OMG those vids of Wosie are just the cutest. She didn't look too sure in the first video it looked as if she was saying "Wow the ground is moving really fast, mum, is the ground meant to move that fast?" Then in the second video Wosie's all like "oh yeah I'm just the cutest biker chick and I'm just so darn nonchalant, It sure seems like I've been doing it for years". I bet Dougal'd love it. He LOVES sticking his head out the window of the car. Does Wosie (or other biker-yorks) get knots? When I had long hair I had to keep my hair all pulled back or it'd tangle badly!
