Default Lake ride with my daughter

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...

thats one of the reasons I ride, is to have one on one time with my girls. They dig it. Theyre little ironbutts I take em on a 1k weekend ride every year for the last few years, and its time you just totally value. They feel pretty cool going back to school and comparing summer vacations

You have a cute kid man, You gotta be proud
