Keith's first ride..........
« on: January 09, 2010, 09:02:23 PM »

I remember when I was a little kid.....a friend of the family took me on my first Harley ride.....a panhead that had the biggest seat that my feet barely hang over the edge.

I have a few pictures of my daughter (now 30) as a very young girl, riding with me on my rigid frame pan/shovel back in the early 70s.

Today I spent several hours washing mine and Terrie's bikes.  Keith (Terrie's 3 year old grandson) spent the whole time in the door watching me.

He kept asking me for a ride.  I told him to go ask grandma.  He did and she told him "go ask J.C.".......he did.

He thought he was going to give me a ride.  Look at the seriousness on his face. ;D

He's waving at grandma as we pass by.....

It sure made his day.  I think he plans on sleeping with the helmet on. :huepfenlol2:

I know the feeling of taking a child for their first ride and it is awesome! My child is 4 1/2 months old and I can't wait until that day where we can take that "First Ride". Too Cool!

You know, I was going to take him on my bike but he didn't want to.......it had to be "grandma's motorcycle". :huepfenlol2:

Terrie kept trying to get him to come all the way inside and close the door (he was looking out the steel security screen door).  He refused for the longest.  I had to explain it to her......."Terrie, you'd have to be a boy to understand.....if I were out here for six hours washing these bikes, he'd be standing there for six hours.". 

He had his helmet and little gloves on half an hour ahead of time. ;D

I remember my first ride and now I've had the pleasure of giving another little boy his first ride and being able to photograph it (we're going to print some of the photos and frame them for his room) for him.  He talked all the way around the block......and for an hour after. :)

He thought the pleasure was his............but it was mine! :2vrolijk_21:
