    My Dad owned bikes since he was young, when he met Mum she used to ride on the back of his.. So when I got my first bike at 15, there was some questioning looks. Otherwise they were pretty easy with it.

    If I ever father some hellspawn I will happily get them into bikes if they want..

    most of our kids either ride or are pillions & love it, our youngest (15) has just bought his 1st road legal bike & rides with us or does his own thing, he has been riding since he was 8 much to the disgust of family, friends etc... who don't know shit about riding, we have always let our kids ride mc's around the farms we lived on etc.. with the rule foot wear, long pants & push bike helmet were the min... to be worn & it's a great way to do stuff together
    the down side with 14 years ago our eldest son (then 18) went to his 1st rally sulphur city (i think) & we got the call on Saturday arvo that he had binned but was ok bike a bit trashed had to go get him & bike, about 3 years ago on the bottle lighting run we came around a corner & found our daughter & her boyfriend lying on the road after high siding, (we were 1st on the scene) both were ok a bit of concusion & brusing bike rideable to next town, it's part of the territory & as parents we have to except that it could happen & be alot worse than what we have had happen, I still worry some times & I guess thats just part of being a parent, but it wont stop me encouraging my kids to & to do it well

    Both my boys (16 and 14) ride off road, the youngest races. My daughter (18) can ride but prefers to pillion with me. My boys are both shit pillions. One bounces round like he's got ants in his pants and the other goes rigid whenever we lean into a corner? Weird! Miss 18 and master 16 both drive and master 16 wants his bike licence but I'm in no hurry for that! I know he'll be safe but it's all the other mad fucks on the road that I'm packing myself about.

    My son is currently in my shed returning his street triple to some semblence of standard to get a WOF, then we're off for a ride. Rode down from Kaikoura with him on Monday and I was pleased that a fat old man on a slow, fat bike can still show a young lad on a missile a set of pipes going through the Hunderlees. Most of the time.
    Don't blame me, I voted Green.

    23 years ago my Dad was super pissed off that I traded my 250 in on a toyota corolla. A few years later it was all good again when I traded the corolla on a calais, and bought my mate's RD350LC. 17 Years later I'm still pissed off with myself for ever selling the RD...
    Keep on chooglin'
