My Mom

[t-man403]

This is my mom ....... 85 years young 
We're going out for supper right away so I don't have much time to type, but, she's the reason for my good looks! 
Dad passed 2.5 years ago at 87. I introduce him to the "VR" a while back ..... there are links within this link.  http://www.volusiariders.com/73-friends-family/223189-thanks-ride-dad.html I wish he were here so we could all go out. That's not to be but I thought I would introduce mom here as she was ticked off at me for not bringing DDT, troutdude, Mitcho and Wingman to meet her. Sorry mom .....my bad!

If she is going to ride on that fender, she's one tough lady.
She looks in good shape for 85

Had a good supper last night with mom my sis and some friends. 

No she has never been on a bike and says she still likes my Volusia better than the Valk. She says " this one is okay but I liked the silver one better."   ???

My family has lived a different life than I for the most part meaning our interests were very different. I was the one active in sports, getting a bike, have an old muscle car.......stuff like that that they were not really interested ..... at least not to the degree as I. I think that is the reason I didn't introduce the guy's but that was a mistake.

Gee, my mom doesn't even know I own a 'real' motorcycle, not even the Valkyrie I/S for more than 6 years now.  I don't want her worrying about me getting in an accident since she worries way, way, way too much, especially since the Valk is such a HUGE and powerful/fast bike.

She does know I bought a 249cc scooter that I putz around locally with though.  She worries about that as well as she has told me but have riden it to her house the past 2 years up onto the sidewalk, into her front yard, and onto her front patio right up to her front door.  She thinks I am nuts!
