Dad's retirement gift to himself. Cobalt blue, chrome tank badges, and a soul that belongs to a different era. He rides it every Sunday morning — same route, same café, same table. Some rituals are sacred.
“Some men buy sports cars when they retire. Dad bought a Bonneville. He made the right call.”
Picked it up the week he retired. He'd been talking about a Bonneville for 30 years. Finally.
The café run begins. Same route every Sunday. He says it's the best hour of his week.
Rode together for the first time — him on the Bonneville, me on a rental. Three hours through the countryside. Said almost nothing. Didn't need to.
9,100 miles and counting. Every Sunday, without fail.
Car guy since birth. Grew up in my dad's garage, now building my own legacy. Every car I've owned has a story — and I'm not done writing them.

The car that started it all. Dad drove this to every little league game, every school play, every family road trip. The AC never worked right but we never cared — windows down, radio up.
Mom's trusty Camry. She drove this to work every single day for five years. We called it 'The Silver Bullet'. It survived two fender benders and one very unfortunate parking garage incident.
My first car. Saved up for two years working weekends. The day I drove it off the lot I cried — actual tears. Candy apple red, 5.0 V8, and absolutely zero practicality. Perfect.
