^^^They do indeed. I dread the day my girls don't want to go anymore.

I have 5 kids and 3 were on the bike with me at various times today. My 16 yo daughter and I went with a group for a 3hr ride and breakfast tis morning - great time. My 7 yo son and I went to the store to get ring pops for everyone - great excuse! My 10 yo son and I went just for the heck of it - great attitude. How am I going to get out of the house to ride when they are all grown up?

Good for you. My baby just got her motorcycle endorsement yesterday. Guess she won;t be riding with me anymore. Enjoy it while you can!

Thanks for all the comments. She's got a pretty persuasive way about her. My fear is her love of motorcycles. I'm telling you the first day some kid rolls up on a bike to pick her up for a date... bad news.

Hope all of you enjoy your sons and daughters; young and old.

What a cutie-pie. My daughter will turn 5 in January and she's been on my bike a few times for rides around the block. She just loves it. I do to. Good times....good times.

[QUOTE=E.Richardson;3813483]Washed my bike this morning, polished the chrome and walking around making some last minute polishes and touch up's when my daughter walks out and says, "Daddy, it's a pretty day - you should take me around the lake."

Guess where we wound up/QUOTE]

Enjoy those moments........My daughter is 13 and I live for those days that we go for rides.

Enjoy that time with your little girl. I missed most of the time when my girls were growing up..they are now 18 and 15. Spent a lot of their younger years on the road as a truck driver and then got divorced and they are several hours away now. I wish I had the time with them now that I missed when they were little.

Life is Good! You are a good Dad. Have you given your daughters the just say no to crotch rockets speach yet, lol!

My youngest just went off to college, sigh. However, my wife and I took a ride out to Pistakee Lake yesterday for a quiet dinner on the water. There is something to be said for that as well.
