Dad's getting a bike.

Post by Jon B »

Dad has got jealous of me with my bike, seeing as my Mum told him to ditch his old CB250 22 years ago, so without needing to retake his test is purchasing a Hornet 600 tomorrow.

He can't use computers all that brilliantly, but I think he would like to come on rideouts in the summer, so he will probably pop along with me when I have my new bike as well. 8)

Well, when your Dad gets on that Hornet he's going to discover that bikes have changed a little in 22yrs. Get him to do some training, be persuasive and get him to pay for yours too. :idea:
