I took a ride last year with a Bad Ass Biker

Well, tattoos, beard, large dude....
he looks the part. Then, one thing changed, you see, in one moment, all that image was destroyed. 

Back when this boy was growing up, he was.... well, let's say, not an angel. There are stories I guess floating around out there about his past. 

So, we stop off and visit his family, since we were in that State anyway. One of the children, a little girl, a niece or something I'm not sure. but it appears she must have been told to watch out around him. On the last day, we were getting ready to leave, she walked up to him, said, "They told me all kinds of things about you", then she planted a big hug on him and said, "But you're just a big Teddy Bear!"

Bad Ass,
Biker,
Tough, 

All gone in an instant, as quick as it takes for a little girl to give a hug, all over.

I'll tell you, All the way home, and ever Since that time a year ago, every time I look at him I see..

Actually, he is the type that will stand by you when there is an issue, work on a problem when you have one, and you can count on him when no one else can be. He is, a Brother Biker, with the emphasis on Brother.

That said, it still makes me laugh when I picture him as a teddy bear. I mean if you can't make fun of your brother, who can you make fun of.
