bongobobny Posted July 30, 2008 Share #1 Posted July 30, 2008 ...and it felt REALLY good!! Goldie is running great with the new plugs and wires, and we now have XM radio as well! My foot is still a little sore but nothing intolerable. The incision is almost completely healed over, just a little bit more to go. I have a hard time tolerating standing for any length of time but riding has no discomfort at all!! See you at Asheville! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bongobobny Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share #13 Posted July 30, 2008 Thanks, everybody!! We are really looking forward to leaving this Satrurday for a two week ad-Venture! Brakes need bleeding before I go anywhere but we'll handle it! Really looking forward to seeing a few old friends and meeting some new ones as well! The Piggybacker seems to pull very well but I wish I would have had time to put a swivel hitch on. Big Tom, you betcha we will go riding when we get back! We will be back on the 15th but that weekend is booked solid. We will put something together as soon as possible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetnothing Posted July 30, 2008 Share #14 Posted July 30, 2008 Bob, Glad to hear you are able to ride again!!! You and Becky be careful on your trip, and have fun!

Guest JGorom Posted July 30, 2008 Share #16 Posted July 30, 2008 Good to hear Robert...but please don't rush it! It usually does not take much for our health and well-being to deteroriate... but unfortunately it always takes us longer to go down the road to recovery. Be safe and God Bless!

PBJ Posted July 30, 2008 Share #17 Posted July 30, 2008 Welcome back to the road Bob. Sorry to hear that you and Becky won't be able to join Tom and I in a couple of weeks but you've got the absolutely best reason ! I hope we can all get together for an M&E after you get back. I'd love to try and get a few more New Yorkers together for a get together. Heck if a few of our Canadian Brothers, or Ohioians or Pennslyvanians want to join us that would be even better. Safe trip , breath the air deeply and enjoy every mile. See you soon. PHIL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bummer Posted July 30, 2008 Share #18 Posted July 30, 2008 Congratulations! I found that even after a crushed leg it's easier to ride than walk. It's really hard to explain that to the medical folks. They just can't seem to wrap their heads around it. Ride safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
