"A lot of doors are open to women that aren't open to men" thoughts?
I ride solo, and I always read articles from women solo travellers that as women they get unique, positive experiences that men don't while travelling.
However my experience has been that when I compare notes to men who travel the same routes and couples that they're always getting invited into homes and to drink vodka all night, where I find while I have had some fantastic hospitality along the way, that sort of thing rarely happens to me - that 80% of my time is loneliness, 10% is fantastic hospitality, and 10% is what I think at the outset is hospitality but ends up with propositions for sex.
I mean it's not surprising - most of the people you encounter out and about are men, and I can see how the good ones might be reluctant to take a strange motorcycle woman home to meet the wife, but it does make me wonder what all these fantastic experiences are that I always read about online.
Since I almost never meet women who ride alone I was wondering what you ladies out there have experienced - is it more like me and if not, what am I missing?
