I have worked out a few things so far...like she must get her own bike :).....till then i need some good advice! Safety for my gal is paramount & the better/safer i ride with her then great.
Things i know & do...:
Sitting down around corners put weight on ouside pegs...Same with standing up.
Uphill...both lean forward....backwards going downhill.
Where should she be holding me....i thought one hand down back of pants (yeah ok guys) & other holding velcro waist strap. I find a hand on my shouldr uncumfy. I also find my wrists & foearms taking a pounding to compensate for her extra weight....must she balance more independantly?

Some pics of Lil minx today toodling around my block....she's only 5'7"....had to push her off & grab when coming back! ;D Very confident on that bike ;D
