Riding B on the Goldwing!

Grandma and Grandpa Warth stopped by today to spend some time with the kids. They thought it would be fun to give them some rides around the block on Papa's Honda Goldwing!



Here are a few bikers lingo for ya:
Riding B: Riding second on the motorcycle, behind the driver. The “B” does not stand for back.
Knucklehead, Panhead or Shovelhead: Decades-old models of Harleys, nicknamed due to the shape of the engine's rocker box. When someone says they own one, nod appreciatively – there are almost no original ones left.
Burn-out: Spinning the rear wheel sufficiently to melt the tire, competing to see who can put down the biggest patch of rubber on asphalt. It ruins the tire, but it's cool.
