My wife and I joined the Roadies Biker Club a few years ago for fun, in hopes of meeting people and finding others with the love for Harleys that we had. Thankfully we were fairly welcomed in to the club and found a home among like minded people. We were young in our early thirties, and without many restraints save for a work a day job.
About six months ago the group started accepting new applicants and before we knew it there was new couple aboard. They were more middle aged and very anxious to be taken in by the group, often hanging around the bar with us to get integrated. Chuck was in his early fifties, in fairly good shape, bald, donning a goatee, and very and very interested in showing everyone he was young at heart.
Especially when it came to his doting wife who, while attractive, spent most of her time chasing after her husband and talking about their now grown children. Chuck had spent most of his time around children after marrying young and rarely had fun, so joining the bike club was a big deal for him. My wife and I were fairly different. I was slimmer, with a full head of dark hair, and took good care of my body.
After six months in, my wife Kelly and I made friends with Chuck and his wife Sheryl and spent a good portion of time together, drinking and getting to know one another. They were at that age where they could travel now and a local biker convention garnered out attention.
As usual Sheryl and I were ready to hit the road, and much to our surprise Chuck and Sheryl asked to join along. Chuck more than Sheryl, of course. Sheryl was content to stay behind but Chuck persuaded her after days of maybes.
Nonetheless after a few days we all hit the road together driving side by side and paling around as we usually did, and Chuck loved where we'd holed up for the weekend. Kelly suggested joined hotel rooms, and surely enough we were neighbors. I didn't mind it too much since Chuck and Sheryl were good people, but most times it was just the pair of us enjoying the sights and partying.
In either case, the first night there, we all prepared to hit the town and Sheryl and Kelly made a point of rushing out first for a trip to the bars. I combed my hair preparing to leave as Chuck rushed out obviously nervous and prepared to blow off some steam for the night.
"You're more pumped than I am," I laughed tying my boots.
"I love my family, but thirty years tied down and you get antsy," he smirked.
