The hits keep coming!
A couple of days ago the 7 y/o mastered the bicycle without training wheels.
We'll keep 'em on the PW50 for the next ride and then let her decide when they come off. We're getting there.
Spent yesterday dragging the 10 y/o around looking at XRs and CRFs. She learned (very basically) to use a clutch a couple of weeks ago, so I was thinking XR/CRF80. After doing some sitting on both, she was more comfortable on the 70 and it fit just fine. She can just barely not flat-foot and the proportions look right (she's clearly too big for the XR50 she's riding). It came down to looking at a couple of CRF70s and an XR70. We chose the XR due to the owner having the title & owners manual and throwing in a set of new riding gear. The fact that it was 50% cheaper helped too!
I wasn't locked in to a Honda, it just seemed like everything for sale locally was a CRF/XR. I've had nothing but good luck with the pile of XRs I've had over the years, so I'm not at all unhappy about it working out that way.
One down, one to go. Just need to find something for my wife now (and sell her XT). And resign myself to the fact that I'm riding my Scorpa/XR for the foreseeable future.
and other irrelevant chit-chat
