My middle son the summer after Santa brought his first dirt bike. Not too long and the training wheels were history. After a day of riding. My dad, myself, and Drake. His first year playing football. He loved it. Drake holding his 2 day old baby brother. I am truly blessed.
Here is my youngest. 4years old helping to stud up the ice tires: Here is my dad wearing my grandpas racing gear at about 4 yrs old too: My middle son has little interest in motorcycles or even pedal bikes. But he is only 9- and he likes to ride on the back.... sometimes.
How old is he here? 4? Looking good kid! elbows up! My little guy will be 2 in two weeks. I'm thinking he'll get a little 50cc for his 3rd B-day.
Here is a few of our recent adventures. I have 2 boys aged 10 and 11 y/o. This was our New Years ride for 2011 (30* that morning) all geared up and ready to go Our first motocamping trip late last fall On a trip to Springfield Ill about two years ago(~ 450 miles each way) He was 8 at the time. It rained SO hard and he never complained once. The day we picked up my Ultra. My oldest boy was 8 at this time. The monkey was a class project and he had to write about what the monkey did over the weekend at home. I bet that was the only time that monkey got a ride on a m/c
I owe alot to my dad -- he got us our first mini-bike when I was 6. Don't have any pics of the ole' Kawasaki KZ75. But when I turned 12 and my feet could barely reach the ground, Dad would let me take his Honda 650 up and down the street. I'm on the Back with my brothers Kraig and Trevor. He took me for a ride from our home in Apple Valley California to St George Utah one summer on this bike. I remember us getting caught in a sudden downpour and me wearing a pair of cutoff shorts. The rain drops felt like nails at interstate speeds. We took cover under an overpass and put some jeans on. We didn't always have alot of money but he made sure we had a lifetime of memories. Last time he visited me I let him take my KLR out for a ride. Thanks for everything Dad
I'm a third generation rider. My grandfather rode for the Army in WWII, my dad started riding in the sixties, I've been riding for about 10 years. My dad and I are both RiderCoaches for the same school. I like to kid him that I have been a coach longer than he has, but he always says he was working at the company longer than I was. Wish I had some more pictures.
These are my little ones, from L to R: Fiorella(8), me, Chiara(3), and Renato(5). For the record, the bike was parked!
Me and my Dad circa 1986......... Me and my son circa 2005-ish (OK I'm not in this one but my bike is......and I just really like this photo) Found one with both of us....Circa 2004.....(Jake's first race....2nd Place!)

Great pictures and story's guys. I'm going to have trouble trying to figure out which pics of mine to post. My middle son (10 y.o.) is my 2up riding partner and also learned to ride this year on a PW80. He and my youngest (5 y.o.) scored new bikes for Christmas this year, a ttr50 and a ktm65sx. My oldest (14 y.o.) rides a drz125L. We have created some great memories and met some great people all thanks to these 2 wheeled vehicles. From a week long camping trip to MT. Washington this summer. Little and Middle havin fun in the snow. Morning, after a 26 degree nite in the tent. Great day to follow.... That close together and they're not fighting? Two on blue in the middle. Ready to mix it up a bit, Good Times!!!!!
