    Default Grandpa suprise

    Well, seeing how a lot of Spyder riders are a little older, I am sure a large number of you on this forum has experienced this already.

    Well I have found out that as of October, I will be a Grandpa for the first time........twice, surprise .
    My daughter and son in law are expecting twins.

    I spoiled my daughter and got her hooked on motorcycles at an very young age. She is still the one who wants to ride with me whenever she gets a chance.
    I understand how to give one a ride and hook them, but how do I do 2 at a time??

    No idea if they are boys, girls, or both, but just praying that they are healthy and she has a save delivery.

    Just had to share the news. Can you tell I am excited?

    So how many of you have grand kids that love to ride with you? What is the best trip that you have had with a grand kid?

    Congrats. It is definitely an exciting time. There is nothing quite like the arrival of the first grandchild. You will definitely figure out the ride schedule. I have 6 that have to share the ride. But nothing puts a bigger smile on my face than to have a grandchild on the back.

    There is little in this world that comes close to the love for and from a Grandchild.

    If i would have known this years ago we would have had Grandkids before we had kids .

    It appears to be time to start picking up R/C-controlled Spyders for the new arrivals...

    Hmmm.... I like the way you think. Now I can buy all those fun toys I never had growing up and blame it on the grand kids?

    I like it!


    I see it now, what, you know its for the grand kids! That just might work.

    I'd say that "Great minds think alike"; but I'd hate to insult you like that!
    You're just "testing" them for safety; that's all!

    Congratulations. Grand kids are great. I'll bring my triplet grandsons by to see your twins. As a matter of fact they live about 15 minutes from Dorr, in Zeeland. Where are your's being born? I can't say enough good about Helen DeVoss Childrens Hospital there in Grand Rapids.
    I get up there about once a month. We'll have to get together.
    Love my

    Statistics show that most motorcycle accidents are caused by a defective nut holding the handlbars.

    Thank you very much.
    They will be at Spectrum hospital, so right next door to the DeVoss Childrens Hospital.
    Triplets, now there is one busy mamma. I bet they keep grandpa busy also!
    Give a shout next time you are in the area, I would love to meet you! You know how it is, any excuses to go on a ride, especially with another Snyder is a GOOD thing.
