Exactly what I do - make sure you are in plain sight, out on the driveway....... LOL

I do a lot of the same - I have one set of grandchildren right next door - and they bring all of their friends over - some moms even drop 'em off at my house if my daughter in law isn't home. Most of them even call me grandpa !! LOL

Sometimes, I have half a dozen bikes on the driveway, waiting for their turn in the rack..... Nobody goes home without good brakes, good used tires, and good shifting.
