New Wheels!

December 22nd, 2004

My grampy got a new bike a few weeks ago. We were all really happy that he bought something for himself since he has been really depressed since my grandmother passed away.

He is 87 years old and rides his bike every day. I know I am biased but he is pretty darn cute!

    That is an awesome bike. And seriously? Your grandpa? ROCKS! He looks very cute in his helmet.
    OHHH now I miss my grandfathers!!!

    Aw, that’s awesome and so cute. My grandpa walks a few miles a day and swims every other day. My grandmother is still alive, so it’s probably just an excuse to get away from her for awhile… (hehe). She’s nowhere near as active–though she goes on the treadmill.

    Anyway, very cool and I love that picture. Your grandpa is keeping himself young.

    Grampy rocks! He looks ready to hit the pavement! He’s more active than I am and he’s approximately SIXTY YEARS older than me!! Good for him!

    What a hip grampy you have! It’s so cool that his helmet matches his bike. Whoa, that’s a pretty cool bike, too! Nothing like a new set of wheels to cheer a guy up.

    that is awesome. My grandfather is the same age and still plays an entire round of golf. It’s good he is so active.
