That is no joke! Kick that knee WAY the hell out there. I spent 30 minutes in a culdasac practicing that maneuver.

It was YOUR bike that put the evil notion of Burley Beach Bars in my head! I spent hours studying your pics and the lines of the bars before I even bought the bike. Thanks for inspiration, seriously. Damn if that didn't sound creeper...

Forget trying to figure out a young girls mentality, reasoning or what and why they think or do like they do. Just go with the flow and put your foot down on what will hurt them. I was pretty open with my kids, I probably gave them a little more room then most but hey, they are young adult's now and pretty good kid's. My kid's are actually my best friends but I don't cross that 1 fine line with them. I am always Dad 1st.

Knees, the new mantra...recite it every time I fire up the bike.

Well said T-bone. Always open and honest with the kids. I am Dad first, last and always. They get what they have earned whether it be good or bad is up to them.
