Not a "Great Ride" but sure is fun!

Here's what's going on at my house:

My son Shaun and the neighbor girl, Haley, tearin' it up in my yard.

I was out there too on my Honda 300 and my son passed me twice on his 90! Well, at least I can keep up with Haley! Of course, I didn't have a helmet and was fighting the dust. OK, OK, I know excuses, excuses!

Sure is fun sliding around corners with extreme body lean, 60-75% counter-steer and still being in total control. What an incredible feeling!

Here's some pics:

Haley comin' around turn 4:

Shaun comin' round turn 4:

Neck & Neck, comin' into turn 1:

Thank you DJ and OU!

Yeah we spoil him, of course it took a lot to get him here, so I guess were entitled! Hard not to though, he's well behaved and getting A's - A+'s in First Grade! (He doesn't get that from me!) We're very proud.

And, have some big things planned ahead for him:

Trans-Siberian Orchestra in Jan. (He loves their music)
Monster Truck in Feb.
Motorcycle Show in Feb.

Of course, we get to go too! After all, we're just kids in a grown up suit!
