Congrats to family riding!! From a son's point of view, I have been lucky enough to be able to keep two bikes in my stable for a couple years now. My mom does not approve of the bikes, scared, so I have two bikes so my dad and I can ride together. He was a biker in his ealry days but with the farm the nice days were spent in the fields. Now any chance I get to invite them down to "see the grandkids" (go riding) I do. I ride with many different riding buddies but the best is with my dad. Although he likes to "puttz" just seeing the look on his face and the feeling that we can forget it all is great. Your son will love the Sunday or whatever day rides you can get in and will ride with pride.

It's funny. I have only girls too. While my youngest, 10, loves riding on the back with me, my oldest, 12, wants her own bike....heheheh
