Remember growing up, you or your kids or someone you knew had a rocking horse. Well it is a different day and age. I present to you, The Rocking Motorcycle. Now your child or grandchild can rock away the hours dreaming of riding his or her own Harley. The wide open spaces has been replaced with the asphalt jungle. Roy Rogers has given way to Peter Fonda and Marlon Brando. All the cool kids have them. Just be sure they wear a helmut.

Great, this is a nice idea! I used to make some wood toys for my kid, but never thought of something like this.
ReplyDeleteYes, as a kid, my favourite was a rocking horse! Once, it rocked so fast I injured my toes when it got stuck under the arch.
ReplyDeleteVery cute, and a very interesting piece of wood. A work of master!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post dear friend!Harley is really a sweet dream!

By the way...What do you think about one "jaguar"!!!?
ReplyDeletea sweet dream as well!!!!
Léia ;)
Oh oh I want one of those. 'Course I have a real horse and maybe I need a realy Harley--LOL
ReplyDeleteIs that a miniature? MB
yes, memories of Easy Rider. And a helmet today is a must. I am glad you enjoyed the crested saguaro on my site today. In answer to your question, I used a NikonD90 with a Nikon 17 to 55 lens. The 17 to 55 lens is a rally nice piece of glass and I can actually see the difference in my photos when I used it versus the Nikon 70 to 200 lens.
ReplyDeleteI guess I'll have to settle for one of those (not only for kids, ya know!) I have wanted a scooter, preferably a Vespa, for years but my family has talked me out of it based on their fears for my safety. Hmmm! I guess I wouldn't listen if I lived in your area where I could become an easy rider without contending with low temperatures, ice and snow.
ReplyDeleteThe photo is superb, but my grandkids are a wee bit too old for this wonderful toy.
I just had a flash of Jack Nicholson as a wee tyke. Shiver!
ReplyDeleteI know the American consumer (of a certain age with the disposable income) adopted the Harley, but to see it take its place in the children's nursery is another thing altogether. I will suspend judgment until I see newborns wearing red, white and blue Easy Rider-style helmets in their cribs. Then we'll know for sure that the newest parent generation has fully embraced the 60s as lifestyle du jour. (How much did that rocking Harley cost!!??)
ReplyDeleteToo funny! You find the best stuff.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute! What a nice idea.
ReplyDeleteHehehe! Great post on this one
ReplyDeleteHa! A rocking Harley!! What a fun idea.
ReplyDeleteHAH! I almost posted a picture of one of these today!! Tomorrow I have sky photos, but if I remember, I will post mine on Saturday!!
ReplyDeleteLOL!
Very cool post! :-)
ReplyDeleteI just saw one of these somewhere - can't remember the place. I thought it was very cute. But, as I recall, it was very expensive, too.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Love the talent and sense of humor :)

ReplyDeletei still prefer the old rocking chair ...
ReplyDeleteI've seen something like this in the local motorbike shop and have always drooled over it. So good to see one here.
