Sam rides the Triumph

Sams last night in Nelson was a night to remeber and one I definatly think he will NEVER forget.

Bob worked for days on end to get his Triumph going so Sam could have a ride as he had helped grandad do lots of work on it anyway I get a phone call at some ungoldly hour of the night and its Sam yelling down the phone "MUM MUM can ya hear it Nan put it on the thingy so mum can hear push the button Nana wohoo can ya hear it mum (at this stage the noise was extremely loud i found out later Sam had put the phone on the bloody muffler) wow nana its cool" I was then handed to mum who was in fits of laughter at the excitement from Sam and Bob that finally the triumph was going well anyway i hear a roar and Bobs gone off on the bike to take it to the turf for all to see ( I might add they had been drinking all night there and he had had a few too many) anyway a few mins later after talking to mum ya hear Sam screaming again and Bob is back well Sam gets back on the phone and informs me that him and grandad are goin on midnight run after i told sam that it was illegal cos its not got a warrant or rego and grandad had no lights etc on bike and other small matters Sam informed me it was ok cos if the cops tried to pull them over they woulnt be able to catch them anyway and if they did then Sam would tell them that it was ok and they cant give grandad a ticket cos it was Sams last night in Nelson and he was allowed to have fun if he wanted (dont know how that would have gone down lippy little 9 year old been taught by the best) Well i got a phone call a few hours later to say they were home safe and that it was great fun and that they had got a little bit down the road and sparks were commin off the back apparently the muffler came off Sam thought it was just great some kids came with some wire and they fixed ita ll up and off they went again. Well after cruisin the streets a bit more they pull up to an intersection funnily enough outside the cops house when the other muffler fell off and sparks flew well they didnt hang around to fix that one they just picked it up and hoofed home and down into the basement to hide Sam was flyin orders at Nana to shut the door turn the lights off quick nana quick he had a smile from ear to ear and still talks about it now and tells me he cant wait till the next school hols as hes going back to stay...... so stay tuned for the next school hols fun and games I am sure there will be plenty
