Rise to the challenge

[G.C.]

Don’t want to continue high jacking Kai`s thread but I had to rise to the challenge.

Word of advice G.C

Get yir Raleigh Chopper oot an dae yir cycling proficiency first

The only worrying thing is, none of my neighbours batted an eye.

Just a wee bit too much sendimentalism // nostalgia, there Gordon, for my liking. But each to their own.
Don't have a chopper and my mountain bike is now being ridden regularly by my son...

Serves me right for thinking I was taking the piss

My daughters got new bikes last year, they had the pick of the local bike shop. Mhairi wanted the chopper ! I told her it would be slower, she wouldn’t be able to do tricks, go on the ruff stuff and would be much harder work. She said “but it looks cool and I want one” I bought it for her then told her that I had one when I was about her age. I was rewarded with a smile that would melt you.
Tonight she said “Dad, I’m a bit worried about you” when I asked her for a shot and put my helmet and boots on, SWMBO thinks she may have a point.

Just watch the 'Niagras' with that gear lever. I believe they had a reputation for causing (severe) injury to the more energetic rider!

Embarassing your children (and spouse) is one of the great pleasures of being a father!
