Finding the Groove

After being away from bikes for a long time I was drawn back to it at a point of great turmoil, the details aren’t important, but it…

Women’s World_October 2017
RIDING MY OWN Myra McElhaney   When I first met my husband Phil, I was excited that he had a motorcycle. I loved riding with a neighborhood guy during high school and looked forward to being on back of a bike again. Phil had a Yamaha 650. He later upgraded to a Goldwing then eventually a Harley-Davidson Tour Glide. We loved riding in the mountains of North Georgia on weekends and occasionally we’d take a longer trip. We rode and camped with another couple on the Natchez Trace. A few years later, with the same couple, we rode from Atlanta…
