    While this is true you might add that the infant death rate in those countrys where women continue to ride while pregnant...BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO CHOICE..is far higher then here. Riding a motorcyle because you have to continue to work and it's your sole means of transportation is different from making a decision to engage in behavior that is risky to an innocent unborn child.

    It's a simple 'risk/reward' equation. If you believe the reward, (instant gratification and some 'happy time'), is worth the risk, (no need to articulate that), then by all means feel free to ride.

    But remember...I have no opinion and certainly won't be judging anyone. (Lest others judge me!)

    Wrong. The death rate here is worse than in many countries in europe and even the developing world. Motorcycle have ZERO to do with that equation.
