Loan/rent the bike

Guys, do you have any ideas where to get a bike for a day or smth? Anything more or less off-road capable with a 220lbs+gear rider would do.
I want my son to get a taste of it and would give him my bike, but need something to ride along. Even a big 650ies would be fine, I guess. Anyway it will be some relatively easy riding.
Preferably somewhere in between DC and riding areas.

No dates yet, idea is just forming :)
No plates needed, he can't ride street anyway.

Bring him to one of our rides, or the reunion. Plenty of bikes to borrow. I'd let you borrow my DRZ, not him :lol2:

Yeah, that was the idea, let him mess with my bike and I carefully ride a loaner :).
With rides there is a small problem, people usually ride their bikes :lol2:

Could probably borrow my YZ250F, assuming nobody buys it first. Then again, folks haven't exactly been knocking down my door to do so :dry:

That would be very cool if you son really enjoys it. What awesome father/son time!

Janis, you, and your son, are welcome to use my DRz anytime. Just give me enough heads up to get it out of storage.
