After a day repairing 20 and 24 inch bikes for the little ones after a few crashes, i had some time to turn to the big bikes.

I realized that I got my first real bike, a Bridgestone RBT, around his age now, it made a huge impression. And a few years later, I got an Italian road bike... All down hill from there.

The RBT was stolen, but the Bianchi i have as a frameset still, easy to built it up. And I have a nice French frame that is a bit too small for me that is ready to go...so the big question -- introduce Jr to Italian or French frames first? (I think Italian will be cheaper for me...)

But I just didn't realize that he was already that big and ready for real bikes. If he were just a bit more careful...
