Not bad considering I had my shoulder reconstructed a week ago. Down to half the dose on painkillers now and getting used to left-handed life, another five weeks to go with my arm in a sling.

I'm trying not to think too much about riding the bike in this lovely spring weather, or not riding it. Plenty of time on my hands to plan a few upgrades though, like should I still get the Brocks Street Meg (replacing damaged TiForce) or go for the new CT...........and can I stretch the budget to some carbon wheels

Almost at 20,000 miles and it hasn't been a whole year yet.
Rode down to VA over the weekend had a good time.
Riding in groups is a good bad thing, good to have company, but it slows you down.
And it been over 3 months since my last ticket, LOL.

I'm back in the States after month long vacation in the Philippines. Met a beautiful wonderful girl there and I miss her much. Hopefully she will be with me here by the end of the year. I would much rather be over there...

Hate to rain on the happy parade, but am I the only one here who's broke and potentially unemployed due to the economy? Add to that the 14 is parked with oil leaking from a cracked pan and faulty ignition and it's no wonder I'm cranky! Don't feel sorry - just send $$$ (a nitrous and/or turbo system donation would help too!)
