No my girlfriend did not ride in the back of the truck! But that's a really good idea when she starts pissing and moaning by about mile 50 saying are we there yet. She does not like when I take the bike because she feels like she always get's left behind at my parents house. She does love to go on the 4-wheeler so that's ok. She's all out of vacation for the year so that leaves me free to do what I want.
