Smoke in the air from Napa. Kiddo started off the ride with an Oreo in a baggie in his hand, reward and bribe. We stopped for a stick for kiddo to wave. We passed some police at the fairgrounds doing motorcycle training and testing, and stopped to watch. I tried to tell kiddo that it's easy to go fast but hard to go slow... I'm sure he didn't get it. One of the cops told me kiddo looked like he was driving me with a crop. When we got to daycare the Oreo was uneaten. I guess he was saving it. After that on the way to work I saw a Bricklin safety car. Can't remember the last time I saw one of those. Bricklin is an interesting guy, he brought both Subaru in the 1960s and Yugo in the 1980s to the US market but didn't manage to launch Chery (a Chinese brand). Subaru of America was a US owned and publicly traded company til its acquisition by the parent company Fuji in 1986. Bricklin as a make did not survive a rocky start in the 70's
