The Family

 

As you are all very well aware, the family structure for the Biker Mice is never explained in detail. All we know is that Modo has a nephew called Rimfire, and a mother who is constantly spoken about but never seen. It's from these minimal facts that we extrapolate the bizarre family tree that has come about from Hayden's stories, Blood Ties and Wild Things. Below is the explanation. (For this I leave out all steps, in-laws and half-whatever to decrease the amount of confusion.

 

Hayden Davidson is the partner of Rimfire. Charlene "Charley" Davidson is the partner of Vincent "Vinnie" Van Wham. If Hayden were to marry Rimfire, then she would become Modo's niece. That in itself is not unusual. However, since Hayden is the sister to Charley, this would also mean that Modo would also become Charley's uncle. And if that weren't enough, if Vinnie were to marry Charley, he'd have Rimfire for a brother, Hayden as a sister and Modo for an uncle. Over all this, Modo's mama would become Hayden, Charley and Vinnie's grandma, making Zoey the great-grand daughter.

But where does this leave Throttle in the great scheme of things? Well, this is more extrapolating. This would probably never occur, but for this explanation it's necessary. It is unlikely that Throttle would do such a thing as I am about to explain.

When Zoey reaches the right age, 18, she and Throttle could marry. Hence why this facet of the family could never really happen. Throttle would then have Vinnie and Charley for parents, Hayden and Rimfire for an aunt and uncle and Modo as a great uncle. Plus Modo's mama would be his great-grandmother.

 

And so ends the explanation of what can only be called the weird family connection on any planet.
