Dennis' New Toy
Dennis is really enjoying his new (used) Yamaha Venture. It is quite a change from the bike he had 8 years ago (MUCH bigger) He is going to be getting it lowered so his vertically challenged legs will be able to reach the ground on flat feet. He finally got the registration done and has ridden it to work this week. For those of you readers who hadn't heard, Dennis' brothers, Kevin & Mike, recently bought Dennis this motorcycle. Why...you ask...did they do that? Is it because they had nothing better to do? no. Is it because they love him so much? well, they do love him, but, no. Is it because they wanted to release years of guilt for picking on him when he was a little kid? sorry, no guilt there, so, no.
Funny as it may sound, they were so non-impressed with his riding skills when he went out to CA to ride with them that they really thought he needed to practice more! What a cool surprise to Dennis. And, yes, probably in the end, it is because they love their little brother, Dennis!
Can't tell who's happier here, Dennis or Bay! Bay is wearing his ski helmet for riding around our street. We don't have any youth helmets yet. When Leah heard that daddy was getting a motorcycle, the first thing she said was, "I can wear my black motorcycle shirt when you take me for a ride!"
