    Last Day of Term

    Its the last day of the primary school term today.

    And my kids had conned me into giving them a ride to school on the Ducati.

    Now I normally dont like commute traffic at all, and avoid volvo-driving-school mums like the plague.

    But it was all good.

    We even managed to carry a couple of big cushions that Alexandra had made.

    I stuffed them down my jacket. Give me a cotton wool beard and I would have looked like Santa

    Good on ya! The family that plays together stays together ... and the cool factor for your kids would have been right up there!

    Enjoy the weeks with your sproglings and hope you don't lose too much hair over their upcoming hi-jinks!

    Taking the kids to school in style, You are a great dad

    I remember growing up as a kid a mate got dropped off everyday by his dad on his trumpy. He hated it right up until he hit college and what we had told him all along had come true.......Bikes are babe magnets!

    Also very cool modes of transport for the younger generation,

    Heres hoping we both survive the holidays, LOL

    My boys seemed kinda indifferent to being dropped off or picked up on the bike, but I did it anyway. At least I knew it was cool.
    Haven't had two of them on the current bike, and the one who has been on it tries to hassle me about it being a "dangercycle" or "murdercycle", or alternatively says I should get a Harley.
    Got some foterz somewhere from when they were smallerer, with all four of us on the XBR500RS Mutant - it had a proper saddle, so fitting a whole family on it wasn't hard. I had vague ideas about training the dawg to ride on the tank, but he wasn't keen...
    Wuss...
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....
