And THIS times another 10.
Can only look at this from the perspective of the child, as I don't have any children of my own.
As it's over 30 years ago I'm a bit sketchy on the details but my Dad definitely ran me to and from University a few times (don't like the word Uni as it reminds me of whinging students with an oversized sense of entitlement).
I'm confident he wouldn't have felt that broken though - having left my Mum & I seven years earlier.
Still, the lifts were definitely a help, as there's only so much you can carry on a KLR600, 350LC or CBR600.
EDIT -Just reading this back I couldn't help but slightly marvel at the fact that I ran a CBR600 for 7 months while a University student
Still that was in the days of actual student grants and my rent (room in a grotty terraced house in a grotty northern town) was about £20 a week.....
