The ride of hell
« on: June 04, 2022, 02:57:50 PM »
Hi all
I'm slowly recovering from a long overdue operation, a Rectal procedure , my ass in stitches my d*ck in a catheter I'm hurting lots :o . Realizing I was about to run out of electricity on my pre-payment meter I went for my first gentle ride to get that key charged up, oh gawd, for the first time in my life I wish I was riding a Goldwing instead! Bur job done, a two mile round trip has been my first ride in two weeks. Now I'll wait a couple more I think!  ;D
I brake for animals!

Agreed! My Suzuki RG500s had both kick start only and kick in the butt acceleration!    :o

Catheter removal - oh the joy in that experience - (not).

Wish you well with your recovery take it easy - we take longer to heal as we age - it's just the brain that thinks we're still a teenager.
