Oh, for a Handbrake…

[captblack]

I at surgery on my right foot on Monday and it will probably be a month or so before I'll be able to ride.



Sure do wish I had a handbrake…:banghead:

Best I could do was go out in the garage and start her up and listen to the rumble – I guess I could call that therapy…

Get Well Soon

Sorry to see your misfortune. Sounds like you will be up and riding by Spyderfest. So...Be a good boy and do what the Doctor tells you

I know you miss the wind in your face. I love the area you live in. There are many great places to ride to.
Get well soon.

:shocked: That looks pretty "Ouchy"; what did they have to do?
(I've seen that view on several occasions from my own wheelchair...)
It looks as if it's draining nicely...

I had a blister that was over an old broken bone. I messed around waiting for it to heal instead of visiting the Dr. By the time I did,I had a bone infection that required surgery to fix.

Guess you can say I am a poster boy for what happens when you don't take care of yourself.

The ISCI handbrake is great but it is expensive. I love it!

Diabetic ulcerations here have forced some minor "bone-ectomies" on two occasions for me. It took two years the first time, and 13 months the second to become Bi-Pedal again. 1 gram(!) Levaquin tablets kept the infections at bay...
:lecturef_smilie: When it ain't healing on your foot; you've got to not wait even a day! Once the infecton gets into the bones; your chances of having to be fitted for a Parrot and an eyepatch goes WAY up! :yikes:

There is always a fix for that. I'll tell you so you don't miss the ride:

Put your rear wheel on the rollers
Use a blower in front of your bike, start it up, give it full power
Start your :spyder2:, shift thru gears just like you normally ride

Ride on

Oh, and another note: get well soon to make to the SpyderFest. I'm not able to go, but y'all have fun there. I'll make to one if it's closer to home (Houston, TX)
