Kyle cruised into the parking lot of REI a few minutes before 10AM. He’d unloaded his saddle bags and detached the trunk bag earlier this morning and just visited a drug store to pick up some packs of wipes in case shower facilities were not available at the campsites. He had his kit and clothes packed into one of the saddle bags with plenty of room to spare. His bungie cables were ready for the tents and sleeping bags on the rear rack.
He parked his bike and locked his helmet to it as he heard the telltale sound of Charlize’s Yamaha YZF‑R1 approaching. There was an odd echo effect, perhaps the sound bouncing off the nearby buildings. Then she came into view and he was surprised to see an identical bike, only this one was blue, riding just slightly behind Charlize’s black Yamaha.
The petite woman was wearing her black leathers and a black full-face helmet to complete the look but her shadow was in racing gear to match her bike, blue and white leather with Yamaha emblazoned all over her body.
The two bikes pulled into the lot and Kyle saw both had a small duffle bungied to their ‘passenger seat’. So… they had an addition to their group?
Charlize pulled her helmet off and shook out her hair as she smiled over at Kyle a little nervously. Her friend removed her helmet as well and the first thing to catch his attention was the widest smile he’d ever seen, though it also looked nervous. The woman was maybe 5′ 6″ and skinny except for the extra weight she seemed to be carrying on her chest and ass, like an enhanced hourglass figure. Implants? He couldn’t really tell if she was an example of it but he thought it was crazy how much body augmentation he’d witnessed in California.
Her riding leathers were squeezing her breasts up and together so some delightful cleavage was on display. He wondered what she had on under the racing jacket as that was a lot of skin. Not that he was complaining.
Her sandy blonde hair was straight and just reached the top of her shoulders. He thought it was a very flattering cut.
Her mouth though, that was something to behold. It was very wide and full of bright white teeth, currently on display. She had a slight overbite which braces could probably fix but he thought it was a sexy feature. Her fair skin was generously sprinkled with freckles, over her chest and across the bridge of her button nose, and her large blue eyes looked to him then over to Charlize timidly.
“Good morning Kyle! This is Chloe Ryan. She’s one of my partners. When I called her last night to let her know I’d be taking some days off she begged me to come along.”
“I didn’t beg! I didn’t!” Chloe gasped, her eyes wide with embarrassment. Kyle couldn’t help but smile as he heard the thick Aussie accent in her protests. “I just said I had some days too and Charlize promised me she’d take me riding with her. She’s been putting me off since I got my new bike! Isn’t she a beaut!” The woman was babbling, likely due to her being so nervous.
“Yes, it’s a gorgeous machine,” he agreed and saw her perk up a little. She smiled at him then unconsciously covered her mouth with her hand.
Impulsively, he reached out and gently moved her hand.
“Never hide such a beautiful smile,” he said as he held her eyes with his and her smile lit up her face as her cheeks reddened.
Charlize was beaming at the two of them. “So, it’s ok for Chloe to join us?” she asked.
“Sure, but two things. First, is Chloe aware we aren’t going to race? The pace will be for sightseeing.” Chloe smiled and nodded happily. “Secondly, my bike only has so much room for carrying our camping gear,” he said with mild concern.
The doors were opening so Charlize gestured for them to go inside. “Let’s see what’s available.”
Kyle nodded and gestured for them to lead the way. Chloe went first and Kyle’s eyes widened slightly as he watched her bubble butt move in the tight leather. It wasn’t huge or flabby but she definitely had two perfectly round orbs trapped inside her pants. He caught Charlize’s wicked grin at his noticing and looked away.
They made their way into the camping section and looked at the variety of tents. When he looked at the size of the packed tents, he realized three of them would be an unwieldy load when combined with three sleeping bags. He said as much to Charlize and Chloe.
“What about just getting one four-man tent,” Charlize suggested as she pulled out the rolled-up tent. “It packs smaller than three one-person tents and it’s cheaper too if we pool our money. I think we’ll get a better rate at the camp sites with one tent too.”Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Kyle looked at her in surprise. “One tent?” He glanced at Chloe and saw she was back to smiling nervously at him.
The petite brunette continued. “It’s my first time in a tent and I have to admit I’m a little nervous about it. I think sharing a tent would be less stressful for me.” She looked at Chloe. “Have you ever camped?”
“Not since I was a rug rat! And then it was in my Mum’s backyard,” she said and flashed a quick smile at Kyle.
“So, you’d prefer to share a tent too?” he asked.
That brilliant smile returned and she nodded quickly.
Kyle accepted the four-man tent bag from Charlize and agreed it made sense in terms of its reduced weight and bulk. He smiled at the ladies. “Sleeping bags next.” He walked down the aisle and missed them giving each other an excited smile.
They picked out three bags and made their way to the checkout. Charlize picked up the cost as she had a membership and said they could pay their share later.
Outside, Kyle strapped the tent and sleeping bags to the back rack. It worked well. He glanced over at the duffle bags each woman had and suggested he put them inside his saddle bags. The weight was minimal and he had room. They were happy to take him up on his offer and he quickly balanced the load.
“Ok, ready to go. As you know the route Charlize, you lead the way but just remember, I won’t be riding as fast as you normally do. That said, if there is a section without any forks in the road I could get lost on and you want to go fast, feel free to race ahead.”
“Got it! Let’s go!” she replied happily.
True to her word Charlize maintained a reasonable speed, most of the time, and Kyle managed to not lose them. There were a few times when the two Yamahas shot forward to race over a hill and when Kyle eventually caught up, he’d enjoyed the twisty road so much he understood their need to fully experience the ride as their machines were designed to do.
They stopped a few times to poke around in craft shops in the small towns they discovered on the route. They didn’t buy anything but they did enjoy the exploring.
