Do you think I could get a 2010 without a payment? I wasn't making payments on this one. That would be real nice; ease the pain some.

Whew pastor it is good to hear you are walking upright, sorry about the bike the way you described it it sounds totaled.

It is awful to hear members on here wreck especially ones that post often in the tour section were I spend my time. be safe out there. I am up around Lake Placid NY 500 miles from start this morning. All is good.

Nice. Today was kinda tough. We're going around all I see and hear are motorcycles going up the mountain. My moment of toughness was when I walked out of the hospital last night barefooted carrying my skint up helmet with my bruised up leg through the emergency room waiting area. There was an audible hush and people stared as I walked through. Of course, I waited until I got into the car to go "unhhhhh." It was a great moment of moral victory anyways.

Glad your ok, and also the seat, the cup holder and definitely the jeans. You have a sense of humor.

Oh, and did I mention my LG Voyager phone with BodyGlove case that was in my shirt pocket when I wrecked? The nice lady that was in the car I hit found it and said, "here's your phone sir."

Works fine. Called my wife from the ambulance cracking up about it. Sometimes the irony is just too much. I know little girls that can't keep from breaking one in their back pocket. I take a slide and an impact and my phone still works!

Bummer about the bike, but congrats on limping away mostly intact and with your sense of humor Pastor.

I just hate I messed up a beautiful mid 70s day in the mountains to ride with my wife. I thank God she was not with me... Unfortunately, she joined me at the hospital....driven by my 16 year old!

Love your avatar by the way. I felt like that the last time I took heavy pain meds. That's why I don't take them anymore. And yes, pains and soreness are cropping up everywhere. Tomorrow should be a great day! My bro-in-law has a pool so that has helped to work out some soreness. Thanks y'all.

PR,

The good Lord must have been looking out for you when He put that Hyundai right where you needed it to survive and not slide off the mountainside. And the '09's are on sale before the 2010's arrrive at dealers!!

Ride Safe Again Soon
