The boys' first ride

[Firehawk068]

My two boys have seemed to have an interest in the FJ more lately....................They both have expressed an interest in sitting on it whenever they see it, so I figured it was time to plop them on there and ride around the block.
Then I figured I'd get my wife out there with the camera to document the occasion






Logan didn't want to ride at first, but as soon as he saw his younger brother on there, he wanted a turn  
We just puttered around the neighborhood, but they thought it was a blast!

Then Jacob had to have another turn!
Looks like I might be buying some helmets and riding gear for the boys soon

Awesome, just Awesome...

Bravo Alan!

Teach them well and they will each be as good of a rider as you are some day!

it has to make you feel like a million dollars, even more.

You lucky SOB. They're too you young to have made a mess in their shorts, but you probably made a couple of future riders today. Congratulations!
(Now all you have to do is plan their first motorcycle purchase.).

Allan,
The smiles say it all 

I still remember the first ride I gave my son 15 years ago and every ride together since.
We still ride together and it's by far the single most fun activity we do together.

That's Awesome Allan! Those are some BIG smiles on all your faces! Just wait until you can go for a real ride with them, its amazing! Memories to last a lifetime!

My son is 13 and likes to ride with me when we can. We went for a few rides last year including camping overnight (with Donna in the support vehicle).
Here are a couple of pics:

Good times ahead Alan.
Your boys remind me of my own.

Thanks Derek, that means a lot to me.
The friendships I have found through this forum are the best I have ever had in my lifetime.

Here is my oldest son on the FJ, in 2013

As soon as our kids could ride a bike, we put them on the Z50 and then on scooters. We had many a good time together, motorcycling can be a important part of a strong family IMO. Also teaches responsibility.

Took my granddaughter for a scooter ride as soon as I had the chance - hold the helmet/gear comments please, you raise yours, I'll raise mine....
