Wing training wheels

 


   Someone mentioned training wheels in another thread.  There is
actually such a thing:

   The ones I saw in real life were retractable with a little fender on
each wheel.

I saw a guy  a few weeks ago with 'training wheels' on a small
motorcycle. He was an elderly guy riding a girl who must have been
around 10.  I thought he must have made them himself. Now I find they
are commercially made. Jeesh!

 

How ridiculous. If you need training wheels you have missed the boat
already.

Sometimes I complain that getting old really sucks.  My wife reminds me that
the alternative isn't a lot brighter.
