I'll make a spanner monkey out of him yet. (even though he's finding Allen keys!)
My eldest lad, Nate. Will be 6 at the end of May..
Clever little sod found every one I tasked him to find.

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

Nice man cave will. I thought you had sold the falco

no - the main bike is still with willl - the vultures did pick a lot of bones off the carcass though....
Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Falco is sold. She's just there keeping out of this winter nonsense until new owner can sort a suitable environment.

My eldest who is seven is not too bothered. Now the three year old likes to tinker with the spanners. When the bike is out he likes to help.
Spannering/cleaning I think he is definatly going to be a biker.

My 6 year old grandson likes to help his dad fettle the Landrover, not sure he's as keen on the bikes.
He's very observant and quick to point out things that aren't right!
The tragedy of old age is not that one is old, but that one is young.
