I have been waiting 25 years for this day (pics)
 

As a father, there have been quite a few milestones to mark my life. When my kids were born, when they started school and when they got married to name a few. Today was another.

My son got his first H-D two weeks ago. He kept is a secret from me so that he could take his motorcycle class last weekend, then he told me as soon as he passed the course. Today, after 25 long years, we went for our first ride together. What a blast.

Hope you enjoy the pics.

Very nice, looks like u guys had a blast

Awesome Pics!! Where were you guys at ?

We started off in Menifee (pretty close to where you want to move), took the Ortega Hwy to Lake Elsinore, then through the Cleveland National Forest to San Juan Capistrano, then up and over to Irvine.

There is a wine festival in Temecula coming up. If I am not in Vegas I plan on riding out to it so I can get you some pics.

Very nice pics Baddog...Lake Elsinore looked great...Used to ride down from the Bay Area in the 90s.. its always a fun time..

very cool :)

My son is only 10 so I still have to wait a while.

Wtf, no offense Baddog, but why the fuck does your young hip son have a old man sissy looking bike, and the old man sissy has the young hip looking bike?

Well congrats .. another few yrs for me .. it has been nice Quading with mine.. he keeps up and rides like a maniac .. 3-4 more yrs and he thinks we'll be riding together on the road .. actually scary .. but ya .. shit they grow up too fast .. again .. Congrats .... And noticed your nice little passenger seat and sissy bar for the Night Train .. Very slick .. :)

Nice pictures. Looks like it was a day full of fun.

I don't think a Fatboy is an old man's bike personally. But the fact of the matter is it is his first bike, his wife gave it to him for her birthday present and he got rid of his boat to acquire it.

Sounds like a great deal to me. What are you riding?

I threw it on when goodgirl was here a few days ago. I left it on so I could carry a jacket in case it got cold. Turned out we met a couple at a bar we stopped at. He had been trying to talk her into letting him change to the same rear fender I have.

When she saw how easy the passenger seat and sissy bar slipped on it made his case for him.


It was indeed. Only thing that would have made it better is if you were still here to come along. Thanks for tending the store for me.

Awesome pics!

looks awesome BD.. A day you will probably never forget. Good stuff.

Sebastian

Will it be another 25 before you learn how to resize photos before posting?

Your bike looks bad ass BD

Doesn't GFY resize them for you?

awesome! :thumbsup

Really nice. Must feel great riding with your son next you.

Live to Ride, Ride to Live...

It was a joke, don't have to get so defensive old man...

Bad ass. You guys will have some great times riding together.

oh, I get it now. Sorry.

great pics :thumbsup

After it downloads original image grandpa.

Really cool the way he done it, bet you got a great suprise. Congrats to you both :)

Kick Ass.. I think the area is just beautiful!

Nice fucking paint for a first... def. munki approved.

Sigh.. Another reason to call my dad and end the years of non speaking nonsense.

Looks like fun Baddog.. I do like your bike better though! Personal preference I guess. I like the pipes on his, but I like the simplicity of yours.

Hey is it a lot different riding your bike vs one like his? Pros and cons?

Congrats man! :)

Nice bikes.

nice nice...

Man awesome i just love HD!

Really amazing bike

Congrats on your big day.

Is she lifting your wallet?

I see a bike run to Sturgis in you guys future...great pics Doggie:thumbsup

Congrats! Looks like it was well worth the wait.

Just the first of many!

25 years? Hmm. I just have one question...

What the hell took him so long? :D

Nice bikes! True testimony that the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree:winkwink:
Btw Baddog, your son is a cutie!
