Keep that in mind whan it's your time...... Bikes have helped keep my family close. Some times TOO close!
 
This is my son and I......... Pssst... He's the one on the left!
 

 
And this is him on his SV. You don't see many 17 year olds riding like he does, but I trained him well, and am very proud to watch him ride as well as he does!.........
