    I agree and that's why my wife and I take the kids to the local family restaurants only. But hell, my 3 year old (after my little accident this year) keeps asking: "Daddy, when I fall off my motorcycle will I have a cast." To which I answer: "Yup, and it's not going to be any fun until it's all better and you can get back on your bike." So will I take my kids to a MC rally?? No! - because that would mean I'd have to use the Motorhome and trailer the bike. Now why in the world anyone wants to trailer their bike when there are perfectly good twisty, secondary highways just waiting to be leaned into is beyond me.

    I would not ever take my kids to an event where it could disrupt the adults, but then again my kids have always been able to attend an adult function and know when to close thier eyes if need be or plug thier ears, though that was very x 4 rare but now my oldest is riden a scoot, and we have fun he also knows what is seen at the rally stays at the rally. A hog rally, a toys for tots rally, a christmas ride, that type stuff I would say ok and if the local silcone girl wants to show her latest investment, shame on her but now the black river rumdle, sturgis, daytona, iowa freedom, that type stuff then the parent needs a good common sense beating
