Wishful Thinking

A few years ago, Ben's friends (John and Michael) bought themselves motorcycles. Ofcourse that put Ben into bike mode as well. Then, a little over a year ago, Ben's dad also bought himself a nice, used Harley Sportster motorcycle.
This only made Ben's desire to have a bike worse, but with a baby on the way...and now a baby at home and wife who's been on maternity leave for 6 months, a bike is out of the question.

However, since Ben's dad lives so close, he is able to ride the bike anytime he desires. He really and truly probably rides it more than his dad does. Here are a few pictures of Ben riding his "dream car" the day before Aidyn was born.

As you can see, he is wearing pants, boots, his dad's leather jacket, gloves, helmet, and facemask. Aidyn was born in January and it was quite cold outside. Not freezing (this particular day), but cold enough.

Since then, 3 more of Ben's friends (Gary, Mark, and Tony) have also bought bikes. I keep waiting for the day that I come home and see Ben's new toy. Hopefully he will wait a year or two, or more...but that is really wishful thinking. :)
