First 'Family' Ride
« on: 03.11. 2013 21:32 »
With some November sunshine and both recently qualified biker sons to visit it was time for a photo call before a short first ride together.
We have plans for a long trip trip but you have to start somewhere.
Their recent biker training led to some critical comments on my riding style - so some work to do there then!

Agree. Lesson number one; never ever criticize your dad.....! *smile*
They got a point though. One does get settled into a certain style of driving which is, not least because of changing traffic circumstances and regulations, not necessarely the safest way of driving....

Good one Terry. Bet you had more fun on the BSA than the Kawaha boys.
We old farts do need to brush up on the rules now and then.
