    Default Almost back in the saddle...

    I haven't ridden since my left ankle was dislocated and broken last December. My Spyder's been sitting in my daughter's garage since that time. Due to the fact I've had four surgeries since the accident and spent most of that time in bed or in a wheelchair I basically didn't even get to see it.

    Well, I've been out of the boot for more than a month and am starting to (slowly) get around...sometime even without my cane. So, last Friday I had my dealer come out and pick the beast up to go over it top to bottom and get it ready for the road. My plan is to start riding...short trips around the neighborhood at first...next week.

    Finally!

    I may be old, but I got to see all the cool bands.

    Our Son had severe foot & ankle surgery also.
    1st year said he was tempted to take it off.
    Now he is doing very well.
