I have been reading quite a bit about the debate on rallies and should they be family affairs or adults only. I can remember back in the 70’s and 80’s they would not allow you into the camping grounds if you were not 18. Personally I feel that children should not be allowed in this environment for the following reasons.
1. The amount of alcohol being consumed cannot give them a very good impression of what it is all about.
2. The safety aspect, as we know the bikers start getting a bit wild on there bikes at times.
3. The adult content that normally takes place at these venues.
Now at the Buffalo rally that I attended a few weeks back this was really brought to my attention as a friend of mine had his son there, I think he is around 8 or so. Most of the time it was a case of trying to steer the young boy away from the more adult activities that would just popup out of nowhere.
