You are lucky enough to enjoy two great outcomes of that incident. First you are still upright and it seems mostly unharmed. BIG THUMBS UP THERE! Second, you get to start fresh. The problem with having a bike exactly the way you want it is that you have to find excuses to play with it. now you can start with a blank slate and let the fun begin all over again.

Glad you are ok. That must have been one hell of a ride if you rode all the way to the end.

Im doing good counting down the time to my first neurological appointment. Was told by the last dr. Not to expect to drive/ride for at least 6 months. My primary dr stated this is looking permanent. Looks like the wife is gonna have to get her license and get a trike. I can suck it up riding bitch just to have the ability to be on a bike. Sucks but i broke every bone in my face from not wearing a lid but im getting one before i get a bike
