Taking turns...staying close


We all took turns riding on the back as Jimmy and the caravan, headed for our family vacation at the Outer Banks in North Carolina. Brian had rented a beach house for 7 days to accommodate four complete families, and then we all paid Brian for our share of the cost.

In those days Jimmy & I were the only ones who owned a motorcycle but from that day on it seemed that everyone made it a priority to get one of their own. It wasn't because they had never rode or owned one before because they had, it was just that their families were young and a motorcycle was something of a luxury.

Now that the grandchildren are older and also like to ride, we have become a family of bikers. A family who rides together, stays together and is a close family...it's also a wonderful hobby that we can all enjoy together young and old.
