Every time i watch this video im so inspired to see the father and son bond.... what an ideal father you are... wish that was the case with so many dead beat dads who so desperately need too be apart of the sons/kids life...
Awsome, just awsome. Brilliant vid and the perfect song to go with it, you inspire me and not many people do that. Cody looks like a great kid and your a top dad. Good luck and god bless you both.
What a great video. You guys were able to make a reality what a lot of people just dream about. When my son is older I want to be able to do the same thing. Memories like that will stay with your son long after your gone. He will use what you have shared and shown him as an example of what a father and a man should be. God Bless.
I liked this video. It gave me great ideas for where I want to travel next. I have made a loop from Las Vegas NV to Mexico, up to Canada and back to Vegas. I have also traveled to Utah, and have plans for Arizona, and Colorado. Thanks for more ideas. There is some great traveling on the trips I took if you interested.
Great video Brother! As I watched your video I couldn't help think of the kids in this country who don't have a dad to share their time with, or dads who don't really care to share time with their kids. My son (who is also is named Cody) asks me from time to time; Dad, do you remember when we did this or that? It's great to look back on those memories.
From the looks of things I don't live too far from you, if you're ever in southern Virginia give me a shout and we'll do some riding.
i have to say that was a great video wish there where more guys like you that cared about there kids like you do .your son dont know how lucky he really is ..best of luck to the both of you .
awesome slideshow and music...i think the best gift a father and son can have for each other is a road trip.saw this vid and had tears thinking of the road trip i and my dad had 8 years back from delhi to bangalore in india.my dad has passed away last month and nothing is more fonder to me than those 5 days of road tripping,together.
my son is 5 years old other 3,i am waiting to go on our first road trips with my kids.in dads memory and for my young boys.
I am 51 yrs old father of 2 sons. I got the same Harley last year and hoping to go on a long trip this year but your video brought tears to my eyes - I wish I had done this when they were Cody's age. Now I could not beg them to do it - well may be I can do it with their sons. Thank you for sharing
GREAT THAT YOU HAD THE TIME TO REALLY ENJOY EACH OTHER AND THE MEMORIES WILL LAST A LIFE TIME BOTH OF YOU ARE VERY BLESSED GREAT JOB DAD A REAL FATHER YOU ARE A VERY LUCKY YOUNG MAN ....KEEP THE SHINY SIDE UP AND THE RUBBER SIDE DOWN =0)
well the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon little boy blue and the man on the moon when you comin' home dad I don't know when but we'll get together then son I know we'll have a good time then...
Great video! I hope to do something like this with my son when he is old enough to ride. You definitely gave your boy some memories to last a lifetime.
Wow man, what a great video! I am getting ready to take a road trip with my brother on Route 66 Cant wait! This is definitely a ride you and your son will never forget. Way to be a great Dad!
With out a doubt the best vid on You Tube. What a father! Mr Chavis, you are a man who show what it is to be a dad. I would love to do this with my son some day. Sooooon!!! Really like your ride too.
This video brought back many great memories traveling through Yellowstone with my son..........Even though he's now in the military, I think I'll give him a call now just to say I love him!
You should get royalties for creating a Harley commercial a lot better that that gay ass Screw it let's over finance a harley when we're all losing our jobs and ride ad campaign they did
Dude, greatest YouTube video ever! Dads, sons, Harleys, road trip!!!! And you put Seger behind it all...very moving, very real, and achingly red, white, and blue. God bless!
i look forward to those days with my son when he gets older. true model Mark for what a father should be doing with his kids. you set the bar. Ride on!!

Oh my God!. Could you imagine a better way to build a strong relationship with your son than beyond those kind of experiences?. You just inspired me to do that. What about Mexico City to N.Y.? Congratulations!
Great slide show and music. Can't wait until my daughter's old enough. one question though. in your video it says your son's name is cody in the beginning and zachary in the end and in you video discription it says his name is cody. which one went with you?
Well done both dad and son, this is how it should be, that was some effort. youre both LEGENDS!! Great video, would make a lovely book if you ever got time.
wow. cool slideshow. awesome times with your son. it remind me of my father and I when he used to take me along for road trips. now, i have a bike. i'm still young but i love to do the same with my son if I ever have the blessing to have one. thank you.
that was cool i want to get a harley so bad but my parents say i am going to die. i know they are not the safest thing but im responsible and i want to go on a road trip so bad but i cant get it across to them. any tips? lol
That's awesome. I am in school now and am planning a trip as well. I was just curious as to where you would set up camp at. would you find somewhere off the road or go to an actual camp ground?

What an awesome and intimate journey for you and your son. Hold him close, watch him grow, remember it all...And he will always know who he is.
I got a son, age 15, after 23 foster homes - He had never had a dad present in his life.
He was a wonderful and self-made young man and we had 8 great years together.
I wish all boys could have a father like you are to your son. I miss mine every day youtube.com/watch?v=uYjr0zB6Imw
