What a awesome thread  :thumleft:.

I briefly met Mother the other day and I can see that he is very proud of his olman and very lucky that the two of them can still do together what they love the most.... the freedom of the open roads on a motorcycle.

My dad use to ride a Honda CB 750 and later 900 in the early 80's. Its been a while since he had a bike but he joined me this weekend on a trip. 400km on a 125 .

This man is a legend in mt eyes.

On a previous trip he also joined on a borrowed xr600r. It was a 5 hour gravel trip.
