Tomorrow it will be 17 years . . .
 

It was my daughter's 5th birthday. She loved riding on my bike, but she had to sit in front of me, which meant she could only ride around the neighborhood, so I decided for her 5th birthday to get her a motorcycle helmet, which meant she would have to start sitting behind me.

She was so excited when she saw it, and immediately wanted to go for a ride. Her mom thought I was just going to take her down the street again, but since she now had a helmet, and was a big girl, we rode out to Hermosa Beach, and went to the bar I used to hang out at back then.

A few weeks ago she was with me at Bartels Harley-Davidson and was looking at the helmets. Guess what she is getting tomorrow.

Where does the time go ?:(

dude, you're buying her a bike?

wow

lol whoah...when i first started reading i thought it was a sad thread or something and you were gonna say she fell off the bike or somethin...

She wants a bike, but has moved in with her mother who has stated no way.

Personally, I think that is bullshit. I think our kids are old enough to make decisions like that on their own, no matter where they live. If she wanted a pony or something I could understand.

Oh well, by the time she graduates from grad school I know she will have moved out again, and then we will go bike shopping again.

I can't think of any sad stories involving my kids

time sure goes by fast.... just have her be carefull... alot people in my area have died from bike accidents

Yeah, I thought the story was going that way too. Thank god it didn't!

how nice :thumbsup

both of my kids were nursed under the shade of a Harley-Davidson . . . they have 50 weight running thru their veins
