Wink My future riding partner.

She wanted to sit on daddy's bike and have him take a picture to show mommy. I'm sure that's what mommy wanted to see on Monther's day! I've got a baby boy coming on Wednesday, can't wait until he will be old enough to want to ride like his dad.

I've got 2 girls, I hope they both get into riding. The older (3 in a couple of days) already shows interest in the bike and wants to sit one it. Doesn't like it so much when I start it though. But I can't wait until she is old enough to go for a ride.

Those will be memorable pics.

If she really likes bikes and Mom is amenable it looks like it's time for a Pee Wee dirt bike and protective gear for your daughter. My three sons all learned to ride the same Yamaha Pee Wee 50 when they were 4 and then moved on to bigger dirt bikes. I figured it was better they learn to ride in the dirt and from me than on their own in the street when they were older.

With your son on the way now (Congrats) you'd be able to use the Pee Wee for training again in a few years.

Yeah, my daughter is ALL GIRL! She doesn't really want anything to do with the bike, but she did ask to sit on it. If I start it up with the Short Shots on there, she goes running into the house holding her ears. She takes tap dancing, ballet, and gymnastics. Like her mom, she lets dad enjoy his bike while the girls spend all his money. Which is okay by me as long as there is enough left over for some gas and a couple of new parts. Ha!
