    I'm starting him early

    When my son was 5-6 months old I would take him on my scooter in the pits and brake slide around corners. He loved it, his mom had heart attacks. Today at 8 he's in his fouth year of riding and racing. He did a Pee Wee Hare Scramble and his 3 yo sister sat on my lap on the XR 100 while he chased us around in the Nervous Novice ride. A whole day riding with your kids, there's nothing better. Just you wait till he can ride....

    cute kids. I wish i grew up in a household where motorcycling was ok. Still to this day i have no family support for my hobby, family get togethers consist of the women yelling/lecturing me and the men envying/jealous of me.

    My daughter's been riding since she was 6 yo and now has her permit and has put over 3000 miles on the MZ. Sje's also done 5 track days. Family motorcycling is awesome!

    Just train them correctly from the beginning and help them understand the seriousness of bad decisions.

    Here's my wife (black YZF600) and daughter (MZ) last month.

    I was fortunate to grow up in a family that understood what m/c'ing is all about. Got my first scoot for my 6th birthday and I've never gone more than one summer without a bike of some sort...

    It's impossible to start too soon!!!! I grew up around bikes also (my Mom has all the grey hair to prove it too). Good start, keep up the good work!!!

    Actually, Jay is married to Cheryl, not Randy. Easy mistake to make though.

    Keep an eye on him man. That's not a mohawk, that's a faux hawk and they're more popular with the community. I'd give it 1 maybe 2 years then swap his Disney movies for pornos so you're sure he'll like girls.

    I have 3 boys and can't wait until I can convince the ex to lighten up a bit and let me get bikes for them! Ugh such a battle.

    Great pics of all the little kiddies!
