Day 122 - When I Grow Up.....

122/365 (May 2, 2010) – I just love little kids clothes and shoes, even if I don’t particularly love little kids.

We were out and about today, looking for boots for Kirk since he just bought a new Triumph Sprint motorcycle. It is last year’s model, brand new, never ridden and, because it needed to go out the door to make room for new stock, we got a screaming deal on it.

One problem… although Kirk used to have a bike, he never bothered to get his Class 6 license in the past. When he started looking at bikes we made a deal, no riding until he had a license, and if he should find a bike before the license was acquired…it would sit in the parking spot downstairs staring at him until he did.

Agreed.

And then the bike landed in our lap. So there it sits and hopefully tomorrow he will have his fist stage license. If all goes well, he should be fully licensed in 30-90 days. Which will be great, because it’s going to be torture on me too…since I am not allowed to be a passenger until he has his full license.

I still think that he just couldn’t handle the fact that I had two wheels and he didn’t! LOL! ;-)

Unfortunately I fell in love with a smaller bike while at the same dealership…. the Triumph Daytona 675… bit too scary for me though, I think if I do eventually get a full motorcycle it will be something a bit smaller and isn’t capable of 300 km/hr…..

What does any of that have to do with this photo? Not much really, except that I wouldn’t have found these cute little All Stars if we hadn’t bought the bike because we wouldn’t have been at that store buying Dr. Martens for Kirk.

It all comes back full circle. Sometimes…
