The good thing with being my own boss is pretending to be in meetings all morning when in fact I have sneaked out for a ride. (No body tell Frosty :shutup:)
Would you believe school doesn't start till about the 4th of Feb this year? If I have to wait till then to go for a ride I swear I cannot be held accountable for my actions.
Much as i love the dirt bikes, it just isn't the same as going for a nice long ride in the country on a sunny day.

Lock them in a pen with some water.
Solutions, not problems. My personal motto.

Leave them at home with some matches and bourbon - they'll be just fine, after all, what could possibly go wrong... :oi-grr:

actually keep loosing them to the skateboard park but not keen on the idea of being too far away incase something happens.
Keep getting rid of them to people but not for long enough and there usually seems to be one left!!!!!:doh:
Besides then I have to convince the other half to give me half a day off. Last time he looked awefully depressed watching me ride off. Felt guilty leaving him there. Well for all of 2 secs that is :devil2:

You are lucky mate, start back date for mine is 11th Feb!
Makes it really tough on working families for sure. Maha and I were just talking about it today. We are lucky I guess to be a bit further down the parenting track, so leaving 16 y/o is not so risky...or is it?...LOL

Left in the car, under the casino in town, seems quite popular...
Dunno about riding, but you might win something on the tables.

Move to south auckland .......
as long as you leave the window down in the car no one minds.
Rainbows End is the best carpark to leave them in, you can get a good 3 hours riding in b4 security even starts thinking of calling children & young persons and if they do get called then you've now got a night out on the town as well.
They will slap you on the hand and give you your kids back in the morning.

Actually they are pretty good in the holidays. I have it easy compared to some parents. Mine are used to helping me at work
