My 6-year old son is not into my Cobra, but he IS motivated by money. I had offered him $20 to ride in my Cobra with me well over a month ago, and he finally took me up on it.
I got him some ear protection, stuffed him into a fluffy warm jacket, and it was off to Peet's (our usual) for coffee and danishes (I get the coffee, he gets the danish).
He LOVED it!
From the Scotts Valley Peet's, we went toward Felton and then back around to Scotts Valley via Whispering Pines. Nice day for a drive.
Some of you may recall that Cameron has been undergoing chemotherapy for Leukemia. It's been a tough year, with MANY extended hospital stays and some pretty frightening moments. However, Cameron is now in remission, and he's even had his arterial port removed from his chest (alas, no more intense chemotherapy, just the "light stuff"). His hair is starting to come back (though I will continue shaving my head...), and being able to convince him to ride in the Cobra was just icing on the cake.
It was a thrill, after 3 years of effort, to see my Cobra outside the context of the garage and on the road, and be able to share a ride with my son.
Cheers,
DD
