Nebody Ride with their DAD? since fathers day is close...

[vroom]

When I was 18(almost 12 years ago) my dad was transferred 500 miles away for his job. From Indiana to North Carolina. He sold his motorcycle when he moved. About 4 years ago, my Dad built a deck for some woman. As payment, she gave him a suzuki GZ250. It was a 2003 model with like 60 miles on it. At any rate, when I visited my dad after that, I zipped around his neighborhood repeatedly. Since I was hooked and always liked the looks of the Buell, I got one. 3 months later my dad traded his little 250 in on one of the big Harleys. Ultra Classic Electra Bungalo giggy glide or some shit

My dad recently retired. He put his house up for sale and it was sold 10 days later, and as of this friday he'll be homeless and on his way back up to Indiana. We plan on doing a lot of riding. We plan on doing a lot of anything. It's going to be fantastic.

I ride with my dad every so often.. He bought a 2007 Victory Vegas priemum jackpot in september of 2010.. He always tells me i need to get rid of my sisters bike and get a Victory.. he got his with 2000 miles and now maybe 5500 or 6000.. I bought my 2007 xb12s in march of 2011 with 350 miles on it and at the moment it now has 11490 miles.. I actually wrecked my bike with my dad by my side 3 months after i got it.. definetly a wake up call.. Considering i was doing 70 when i went down she took it like a champ... header and tank was only damage.. frame puck and header wrap fixed that...

I ride with my father every chance I get. He is a die hard harley guy and was happy to cosign my first loan to get rid of my gsxr and replace it with a buell. I am very happy with that decision, by far my favorite bike. We are heading from new york to nashville tennesee then over to north carolina to ride the dragon tail this weekend. Should be a great ride! If anybody has been on the dragon tail and recomends any hotels, food, or anything else please PM them to me.

Just went on a 400 mile ride with him (and 2 other guys from his office) this weekend. This was my first ride with my dad in a while as he was without a street bike for several years, and just bought his new Goldwing a few weeks ago. I think we will be doing more weekend rides together now.

I never got a chance to ride with my Dad.He was never a rider even though he had a few bikes when in the Airforce.He passed in Jan 09 and have missed him every day since.So I can relate to you guys that have lost their Dads and Moms.I have a 13 year old son that rides with me.He has been riding for 9 years now and still loves to get in the bitch seat for a ride.I can only wait till he is old enough for his first bike to enjoy riding with him.To me a Fathers Day gift is to remember my Dad and be thankful I am one too.This Fathers Day I will take him for a ride and think of my Dad.What more is there to ask for.....

I'm one of the lucky ones that not only rides with my dad but got to ride with my grandfather when he was still alive. I am lucky to have the experiences I've had and hope to continue to get to ride with my father for years to come.

Ive ridden a little with my father but not much.... He bought a brand new softail in 97 and so far only has 5000 miles on it. He just enjoys putting around town. Sadly he just sold his house and move far away to tn..... So I probably wont be riding much with him now either... Planning a trip down though to visit and taking the buell to ride the dragon

My Father And I ride together almost everyweek. my father, grandfather and I all belong to a local MC so we ride quite often. I feel truly lucky that I can ride with them and my mother rides too.

I gotta go for a lil ride with my dad(and mom) 2day, after my kids took me out for lunch . Met them @ their house dad's bike died outside of Thurman (loose battery cable, easy fix). We rode up to Heron Bay outside of lousiville and back around, good day. Heres a pic @ the VFW in Plattsmouth:
