From VLBI observations of 11 FR I radio galaxies we find that: 1. parsec scale jets are relativistic; 2. 3C 264 shows a relativistic jet decelerating moving from the core to the extended lobes; 3. 3C 338 is a source with asymmetric parsec scale structure and morphological changes, implying proper motion on both sides of the source; 4. 1144+35 is an extended low power radio galaxy with an apparent superluminal motion in its parsec scale radio structure.
