Pop and his first motorcycle

This is Pop with what I believe was his first motorcycle. He was always crazy about motorcycles, cars, and planes. Neil definitely took after him!

He did manage to get into a bit of trouble, like the time he was stunt riding in his home neighbourhood of Sandy Hill and his dad, the Chief of the Morality Squad for the Ottawa Police Force, had to ward the cops off his trail. Nan rode that motorcycle with him, and Pop rode bikes most of his life.

At one time, he and Nan had a Honda Gold Wing, and they rode with a group of seniors. I wish I had a picture of both of them on the bike.

Oh, those two were so cool!

P.S. I think that is Nan’s brother Bobby standing next to Pop. Also, I guess you couldn’t help but notice all the curly hair Pop had. It started to fall out when he was about 30.
