Ya ever seen a movie called Raising Arizona? Just put the new grandkid in the car seat and strap to the front of the handlebars of your bike.

Works great in the movie. :lol:

joolz,

Congrats and welcome to the club. Its a blast. I bough a sidecar rig to safely accomadate tooling around with him and he loves it. We are going to a toy run together tomorrow. He is 4 yo.

Time to put ape hangers on the riding lawn mower! :lol:

Leiman Harley trikes cost upwards of 30+thousand dollars.

Hmm, I haveseen a kit that you back a wing onto and it sorta turn it into a faux trike.... looked pretty cool actually. trike it and when you feel like it, roll it off and bike it.
