Introducing my little RED friend :)

in #story7 years ago

Right now he is 37 years old, but he has young soul.

I will try to present you his biography real quick. :)


His name is Tomos APN 4s with engine operating volume 50ccm. he has manual transmision. He loves roads, but also offroads.

He was born 1980. in the strong country called Yugoslavia. Made first friendship with my, sixteen years old, father.

Why I said friendship and not the owner?

Because, he never had a "legal" owner. That's true, my father lived in small town, and Yugoslavia was really safe country. There was no need for vehicle registration. No one cared about criminal, thieves and those bad stuff. Everybody knew who is "owner" of what...They lived happily.

Back then, his place of residence was Glamoč. Right now, Glamoč is a town and municipality in southwestern Bosnia and Herzegovina. If you ever happen to be in Bosnia, you will make enormous mistake if you don't visit Glamoč. Beautiful nature, gorgeous people and large amounts of tasty food. 🙂

After 2 years of friendship with my father, they got separated. My father enrolled in the Military Academy (he had to go to Belgrade), which he had finished in fastest time he could (4 years). After that, he was ordered to work in Podgorica (now it is a capital of Montenegro).

So, these two friends met from time to time...

Anyway, as you may know, civil war happened in Yugoslavia. Today's Bosnia was one of the most critical point of warfare. And, my father would never let his friends down. He immediately bought small trailer or sidecar so he could be able to "smuggle" his friend to the safe place or Podgorica. Which he did well.

War as any war is a bad thing. But all things, good or bad, comes to their end (war ended 1995.). Don't worry, big friendship hasn't ended yet. :)

Anyway, after war my father got an order to work in Belgrade. In a couple of years, he managed to move his family from Podgorica to Belgrade. Again, he didn't want to let his friend down.

They had luck, Serbia and Montenegro was still one country. So, "smuggling" unregistered vehicle wasn't so hard. 😂

Finally, after all these events. Time came for me to befriend with Tomos.

All kids first learn how to drive bicycle, but I had a bigger friend. :)


Yesterday, was his bath day. So I will give you few before and after photos.
