Sweet pic. I'm jealous, i'd love to go for a ride, but there's too much snow and i don't have my bike here yet. And what kinda bike is that, or did you add that fairing to your RD? Either way it looks sweet.

Is that the LC?

Looks like it sprouted some fairings.

So glad you took my advice, if he has fun he will not worry when mommy rides the bike by herself, could be a future Rossi inside that helmet. Next time you work on "Elsie" give him a spanner to help too. Oh and if you really worry there is a large strap that you can buy that straps kids onto adults. Very popular here.

That's a little to close to a leash for comfort :|

Makes me wonder just how "OLD" you are??? I grew up seeing other kids in the neighbourhood strapped into full little harnesses similar to this one, but made of thin leather strips.

Im 26. I should say that I grew up before they became popular. I dont recall seeing them before the late 80s or so

Guess its one of those things that keeps coming back around every so often.

Its amazing how much things have changed even since I was younger. When I graduated from high school cell phones were still a rarity and very expensive to use, and the internet had only just started getting popular, this was less than 10 years ago LOL.

My dad is the one who remembers civil defense drills in elementary school, and remembers what he was doing when Kennedy was assassinated
