For a while, Bill had a motorcycle.  He drove it to work.  That was nice because we had only one car, and it saved on the cost of gas.  But I always worried about him a little.  Like nowadays, there was the the usual problems of motorists not having respect for motorcylists and motorists not always seeing a motorcyclist.  I rode with him a few times and always held on for dear life.  The kids liked it though.  (They didn't know any better.  Ha, ha, ha!)  Below are photos of them with their dad taken in May 1979.  Can you tell how much they were enjoying sitting on the bike?

I remember having to put on jeans to ride it since the tank got hot. But he would only take us around the cul de sac. Oh, and I thought he was so cool!!!

Amy, you were soooo abused. It's a wonder you didn't become a biker babe.

My kids always loved motorcycles. Even as kids they had to have dirt bikes. Me, I'm like you, they scare me. I like to be surrounded by metal. That is encase someone slams into me.
