Default i got a taste

I have to share this: about 3 weeks before I had this surgery, I was thrown the keys to a customized Heritage trike conversion and told not to bring it back until the tank was empty. It's the first time I got back in the wind since the accident that almost took my life! First 10 minutes were white knuckle and cold sweats, but the subsequent hour was fantastic! Thanks go to Richard at Pair-A-Dice trikes in Sunnybrook, ABa
