Father's Day June 17, 2007

Picture: Sue gears up for her first ride in many years

My wife, Sue, decided that she would like for me to take her for a ride on Father's Day. Well you could have knocked me over with a feather! Maybe because none of our daughters were here she was filling in for them. Once she relaxed the death grip she had on my love handles we had nice little ride. Just around the neighborhood and then out to the airport area where there was little traffic. Never got over 40mph and she did just fine.

This was Sue's ride back in 1967, it is a Yamaha YDS-3, a wicked fast little 250cc two stroke. The bike is in the house because we had been on vacation and had no place else to put it. Below is me with my Honda CL-77. We rode together quite a lot and always had a good time. A woman riding back then was quite a novelity and little kids used to point a lot.
