Now that I have my Mom setup on a Mac we do the video chat thing almost every day now. I told her that my Spyder was all apart and I needed to put it back together so I can ride to Sturgis. She just laughed and told me a story about when I was 3 1/2 years old her and Dad went in the backyard only to see I had both rear wheels off of my new tricycle and I was working on taking the handlebars off. I guess I found some of my Dad's tools and went to town on it. She said I even got it put back together by myself. :2thumbs:

I guess some things never change :doorag:
