Very cool! I always buy a personalized cake on my kids' birthdays. Obviously, not with a bike picture on them, but that one of yours look cool.

My kids like to play whether they will eat an arm, the head etc....


Darling, what would you rather have? Front wheel or seat?   ;D

Nice cake! You're officially and Old Fart like me. Best part is you were around when your bike looked like that new!
Congratulations!

Happy Birthday Johnie, mine was yesterday and the wife gave me a Fieldsheer Air Speed 4 jacket.
We're both lucky fellows.

You have me by a few years but your not as far ahead of me as Sam is.  ;D

Thanks for the wishes guys.  Celebrated today with a KO ride this morning and a Wing ride with my wife this afternoon.  Now I think I may have to top it off with another KO ride tonight...
