Scooters & sunrise

[Stig / Major Tom]

Been fortunate to get out every day this week for a sunrise ride - before taking my daughter to school.
She is still refusing to let me take her on the scooter!** (well, she does wear a skirt everyday except twice a month when they're permitted to wear nice jeans - and I'm not letting her go without ATGATT)

** As with most teen girls - she thinks boy aren't noticing her - though I know different. I told her that if she were to walk down the hall and throw a full face helmet and leather ICON jacket in her locker - she'd get plenty of attention from the boys!

Then I thought, what the heck am I saying!!

Ah, the joys of having daughters. Always have to remind them of what the boys REALLY are thinking about them. Then having to fess up and explain that you know this because YOU were thinking the same thing at that age.

With 6 kids and 10 grandchildren we did raise one girl, our hardest. I sometimes wonder how we made it? Good luck Tom, perhaps she's your easiest though.

Beautiful pictures, Stig.

I'm glad I had a son. He's 23 now and caused me enough worry. Don't think I was meant to have girls.

Four daughters and two sons - all have truly been gifts from Heaven.
ME, I was the most difficult kid for any parent!
(arrested twice in Paris: climbed onto a stage from which Charles de Gaulle was going to speak the next day; and detained after rowing a sinking skiff through river traffic on the Seine. The first was an honest mistake - the river outing was an absolute blast! But maybe stupid.....also - I was supposed to be in school. Wish they had GoPros in those days - what a video that would have been! Police cars, police boats, barge whistles, cheering spectators on bridges!! Kevin probably still regrets staying on the bank ,not joining Michael & I . )
It is OK, none of my kids read scooter forums.

Sounds more like the French version.

I'm so grateful I had a son (he's 32 now and rides a suzuki gsxr)... but my partner's daughter, when she was younger, asked him how often boys think about girls. LOL. His response "every waking moment".
