    Default No more 2 up riding for a while

    So the missus was out shopping and slipped on a piece of shrink wrap. She has a shattered kneecap and will have surgery Monday. It will probably be at least 5 weeks before she'll be able to ride again. We got the spyder for something to do together and have put about 20000 miles on it in 4 years. We plan on piling on alot more miles after we retire. Riding solo is great but not the same without the running commentary.

    Good Lord, that's terrible! Hopefully the surgery goes well and her recovery will be uneventful. Over the years I've had the misfortune to fracture both kneecaps and I can attest it's no fun at all. Thankfully, healing went well. Now the assorted aches and pains are simply part of being a member in good standing of the "Elder Statesman" league.
