![]() 1981 i think. My parents said would disappear and they would find me waiting for my neighbr to return from work so I could see him ride the bike, or I would be in his garage trying to climb on the bike. They knew from age 2 i would ride.

I think I posted this somewhere else on here during the past year, but this is the earliest photo I've got. About 1971, Honda CL100, my first real motorcycle, there were mini-bikes with lawnmower engines before this...

A chronology
Me in 1968 on my Sears mini-bike, 3.5 hp Tecumseh engine. Dressed in my Sunday-go-to-meeting clothes.
![]() I had progressed a little over the next 6 years, this is 1974 with my Elsinore at Brighton MX track, Michigan. ![]() My brother with his CT90 about the same time frame. ![]() Fast forward to 1990. Me on my FJ1200 in the Smokies. Still have that bike. ![]() The torch is passed. My son at age 2 and a half waking up Christmas morning 1988 to his JR50. ![]() One of his first rides. ![]() Love this thread. What great memories. |
