Trying to explain it "the right way"

Whacha gonna do when he turns up on a mini chopper?

[placidfemme]

The bike is not his, it belongs to his mate... and he doesn't have any bike gear, apparantly he is looking at buying the bike he binned on (don't know what type of bike it is... but guessing its a little rangi)...

My workmate doesn't mind me butting my nose in... lol we're talked about worse personal things then her son riding a bike (ir robbery... drugs... etc) the sad part is that she freaked out more about her son riding a bike then she did about him taking/dealing drugs at one point... and another time when the cops where after him for robbery (turned out to be his mate not him...) and so forth...

I think she spoke to me about it because she knows I ride and even though shes dead against him riding, maybe she was hoping I'd take her side...

As to the comments about him being in a fight, no, cause if it was a fight he would have said so... he's very proud about his achievements as to who he's bashed and so forth... (you get to learn a lot about someones family when you've been working with them for nearly 2 years)

And if he had lost the fight and been bashed would he have been so forthcoming???

Especially if it was the cops

I agree with you're approach Placid, let's hope it works

She's still dead against it, as most newbie riders friends/familys are.

That wasn't the case with me I can say, thank God!....my old man pushed me onto the bike after I said I was interested lol


but some folks, yea, they hate 'em. One of brother's mates is like 22 and his old man won't let them touch them, says he will disown him if he does

Just let her bitch. Sorry but you aren't going to change her opinion.

That sounds like a strange injury to get falling off a bike as well.
