After my accident a couple of months ago, I was in no shape to ride. I started riding again three weeks ago and what a great feeling. I did not realize just how much I missed it. The ol Speedy started right up and had no problems. I have a small ding in the tank that makes me sad, but everything else is fine. The accident has made me a lot more cautious in traffic. I leave a lot more room and keep the speed down for stopping. I have force myself to use the rear brake more in low speed traffic. So maybe getting bucked off wasn't totally a bad thing.

Glad you are back on two wheels, Dave. Congratulations. It is a good thing to learn from a get off. I learned from one a long time ago not to use the front brake in a turn.

While my ankle was on the mend, I would have gone nuts without Mae Lyne's rig. By the second week after my get off, we had her bike repaired and the sidecar attached. I could ride that because I did not have to put my foot down nor use the rear brake. I couldn't even drive a cage. Her rig was my only transportation.
