    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Pic of the week game






He never took up riding and this year much to my suprise he turned up at our house on a new Suzuki GSX-S750 having only just passsing his test the week before and was quick to pass on the touch to his sons.
If any of this goes against the rules I apologise and please feel free to delete what is needed just though passing on the touch to two generations was good.

Great theme Jedz.

Here's one of my grandsons going for his first ride. I'm giving him instructions and to my surprise, he's hanging on every word, or simply hanging on at least!

 
Are the rules still in affect for this? Does it still have to be your bike that you currently own used to own?

Yes, I think so, the bike you owned at the time. (I dont recall exactly how it was stated.)

This was January 8, 2009. I had bought my first bike, this GS550L, in October 2008, and taught myself how to ride it. I lived next to a parking lot (pictured) which was handy. I would go on to take the MSF course for the first time in probably May 2009. My daughter was almost six years old when this picture was taken. She's 15 now, and first she'll get her driver's license, and then I'll enroll her in the state class and learn her how to ride.

She likes to ride on the back a few times in the summer.
One year I awarded her the "featherbutt" award for being my passenger for 100 miles in one day.

Hahaha....She looks comfortable and happy, you....not so much...LOL....;)
 
Ok this is not my pic..but this was the night before Liam and I went out riding in the dirt. His first time ever riding his own bike! He was pretty excited for the next day. Lol...



This is MY PIC....

 
I do now...it was the other post that he made with the two pics screwed me up. Sorry

No, don't be sorry. It's not the first time this has happened. Ask anyone who has compiled the pictures on Friday morning.

I think we all need to insure that we make it clear as to which is our weekly entry, and which is just additional info...
And IMO, I like the extra photos. All these pictures lead to a story, and I like seeing more of the story...
We just need to make sure it is clear, which is which.

Now....Off to figure out a photo....:D
 


My son after completing his MSF course and recieving his new driver's license heads out on his own! December 2006 ( Best I could come up with)

Got lots of cute pics of kids and grandkids on mo'cykl, but was trying to think of what other picture I might have for the category-theme.

I thought of a picture I thought I have. A picture with my son age 13 or 14, maybe 15. And so spent a lot of time looking thru my print-film-negative archive (a-hem, stack of shoe boxes in storage room shelves) and I found that picture in the "Fall 1994" box. Was so happy that I could find the picture (since past efforts to find other pics have not been successful), and the picture was most everything I had remembered.
A picture of me giving him a leather riding jacket.
Was looking at the picture a while (sniffling and sneezing from the dust) before I thought "Oh, doesn't have a motorcycle."

Oh, well. I will share the picture here (the top one), along with a couple others of that occasion, just for general interest.
<<not an entry>>Not any one picture tells the story and includes motorcycle. Will see what else I can find.
