well if i could strap a shrink to the back of the bike and have them work while i rode maybe i could find an answer for all that ails me, but until then the bike is best for me.
Glad you got out and nice to have met ya, Jim. Ditto on the way riding can help to rearrange perspective.

Nothing like the open road and the twist of the throttle to make you forget everything for a while. Here to things looking up for you man.
Faster. Till the thrill of speed over comes the fear of death.

It's funny that this thread came up. I had a conversation with a good friend last week about how people don't really understand how much riding actually helps. People kind of look at sport riders as a nuisance. Which is slightly frustrating. God I need to get my new bike...ugh...
So you were sitting at the kid table there jim

I finally got to dig my bike out last night just to run to the kids class I teach at church, my son rode with and we had a most excellent 20mi trip.
Hahaha, even in the short chair, you still cleared the tall table. Ha!
It was great to meet you and finally put a face with the name.
I'm glad you had a great weekend. It was good therapy for me too.
