It's about a father teaching his daughter to ride a bike, with a definite tinge of sadness about watching her grow up and ride away.

Perhaps you can take care of that shortage (hint, hint, hint)<BR/>Oh, wait there was a movie awhile ago with Pierce Brosnan that was based (I believe) on a book - most movies are now. Can't remember the name now. But it was a grownup movie/book.Karennoreply@blogger.com
