    I put it back together ... gave mother nature the finger and rode like I stole it. It seems like we have one more week of riding left! Sweet!

    It will be after work riding, but riding none the less.  ;D

      Walked past her this afternoon, or I should say limped, after getting home from the Orthopedic surgeons office with confirmation that my left foot is broken.  Guess I will be down for 4 to 8 weeks. 


      I can SO RELATE HERE!  I had a total right hip replacement on 9/21/10.  Now I have a matching pair of steel hips.  The last ride was on 9/10.  Left home about 0515 hrs that day and when I got home at 11:00 PM I had riden 787 miles.  I rode with my neighbor Brad.  We did the 3 sisters from Houston, went to Fredricksburg, Luckenbach and then into Houston on 290.  It was awesome.  It is true, a person can have Raider with-drawal caused by not riding.   ;D

      I have started my bike every week to maintain the battery so I can ride.  I put my cane away yesterday and will visit the Dr. for release this afternoon.  I have become cranky, short-tempered and am close to talking to myself.  I will ride before Friday this week.  I almost (almost) snuck out a couple days ago, but I did not my wife to get mad.  Those of you who know Texas women - well.........discretion is the better part of valor in this case.

      I did manage to order something from Webslinger and ordered some earplugs from Etymotic the ER-6I.  I cannot wait to ride, but I must wash the bike first.

      Ride Safely All,
      MD393 :raider:

          Installed the shorty kickstand that oops made for me and the SMT assassin
      big brawler grips. Then went for a nice brisk ride.

      Started the Streak up and let her run for a few minutes to keep her going.  Still need to make the license plate mount.

      dont worry! this wagon has quick disconnects! its for family rides! the stallion still will ride alone most of the time! but the option for a family outing is now available!
