Organization: DSG, Stanford University, CA 94305, USA Distribution: na Lines: 11 One point not yet mentioned: Hands on the driver's shoulders are a definite no-no. It feels good for the passenger to stretch her arms, and a shoulder massage feels good too, but the shoulders are connected to the arms, and the arms to the handlebars... Should you hit the brakes, the pressure on the shoulders can make steering interesting. Bundle her up if it's cold, make sure she has good gear (say it again), an pat her thigh to let her know all is great. Good luck! Mike
