My Hero Dad

My Dad at the ripe old age of sixty-one Rode a one gear bike farther than most have done Proving at his age, though retired Could ride over seven hundred miles Needless to say, a hero of mine and everyone (Montreal to Toronto and back)

He'd be my hero too//Almost as much as you//I can't bike that far//my rear gets a scar//Which is a challenge to un-do. GOOD MORNING JACKSON!!!
