Hi there...

For years I had no car, and Mrs Wombat and I went everywhere by bike.. Including doing the weekly shop on my faithful XJ6, complete with ruck sacks, soft panniers, etc... and even once a paddock stand perched between us...

Carrying a pillion is on the whole fun.. Start off if you can with a friend who has experience riding pillion... that will help you build your confidence, as you can concentrate on yourself and not worry to much about them..
