Thanks Dale, the only thing I need right now is a new pair of legs to use while mine convalesce. I went to the doctor today and they doubled my meds so I should be able to work them harder to get them stronger faster. One good side effect of this whole thing is that I have lost over 60 lbs now. I guess i did not realize just how big I was getting until I saw my weight on a chart from ICU over at Bayfront. That dam fast food will really put it on you. I tried to eat a burger from Crackdonalds the other day and It was so nasty I could not even eat it. Yuckkkkkkkk. Lots of changes this year. Most of them are for the better. Ride Safe everybody.

Well... I would like to say congratulations on the weight loss, but it really sucks the method of weight loss your are using. Next time try NutraSystem... Less painfull, and you'll still get to ride.

Before you know it you will be a "Lean, mean, riding machine" !!!

You know thats funny because I lost about 80 lbs 3 years ago on that Jennie Craig diet. It worked great. I am just one of those people whose metabolism just makes weight a constant problem. My whole family is just like me so it is almost like we were meant to be fat. I have friends who can eat and eat and never gain an ounce. But the point is that if you know anybody that needs to loose weight, Nutra system or Jennie craig really do work. My most recent method is not recommended. But the weight loss is one of the good things to come out of this, It can not all be bad after all.

Ahhh you have a good memory my friend. But what I meant was too far fo rme to ride alone, and Phil did not have a bike. I don't think I have a distance limitation after breaking my riding cherry in with the crew !
