I can't believe anyone would really ask or have an opinion on this - you are all aware it's 2013, right?

To the OP. Just go for it, don't give it a second thought.
That's because it wasn't considered bad until wannabe's started riding and brought their Queer thoughts with them.

Not only is it gay, it is incestuous as well.

I don't think its that big of deal. I've given my son (who's 12) and my younger brother (29) rides. I'm sure there's onlookers that pass judgement, but Minnesota just passed a bill legalizing gay marriage so we're pretty open minded here.

You wanna know who hosed this up for everyone? The gays, no gays no worries. Call me what you want but that's the truth. Restating my previous post, if you two are ok with it who cares what the rest think.

I used to take my grandson for rides, until he stopped looking like a kid.

My daughter rides with me sometimes. We'll see men staring and she'll say "they think we're lesbians" and then she'll lean in closer and we both laugh. good times!

I wonder if we all said it is gay then what would you do make him ride there by himself. If it was me I would ride my bike and let him ride his own and take the test. stay at the speed limit and you would not have a problem. Thats what I would do anyway
