Totally!!! with you on the first husband bit.......
If you are new do not bring an unwilling
husband/family. They will not be a help and you will feel like you have to
also take care of them. Most men think they deserve a medal for
taking the trash out; how do you think they will feel coming unwillingly to your
first ride?......think about it. Save yourself the exhaustion and
come enjoy your first ride. We'll be there for ya.
I wouldn't know about the sturdier bra suggestion, however......
