    Basketball practice

    Hi,

    Here's a sight that is not often seen. Not one, but two helmets adorning my Jessie Blue.



    Since I had the day off Mrs. BassCliff asked me to take our daughter to basketball practice. Gillian quickly asked, "Dad, can we take the motorcycle?" Well, of course we can.



    I need to get her another pair of gloves. She either outgrew or lost a pair. Her practice went well. The class worked on ball handling and lay-ups.





    After practice we took the long way home. It was a good ride.


    Thank you for your indulgence,

    BassCliff

    I used to see two helmets on my bike, too.

    Then the second helmet disappeared while still on my bike.

    In fact BOTH of the "second" helmets took BOTH of my bikes.

    Both sons took off with both of MY bikes.



    This may happen to you, too, Mr. BassCliff.

        Outdoor b-ball practice?

        Wonderful weather you got.

        Here in the Midwest, we only play pick-up games outdoors, because when the season starts the weather is already too unpredictable and mostly windy, rainy and cool.
        But we don't mind because indoor gyms have much better courts and locker rooms.

                Gosh I remember when my daughter would ride the back of my bike. Now she's working on riding her own.
