Don, you will be in Penny's and my thoughts and prayers. Here's hoping it's confined to that eye.
As far as this site being slow in the winter, a lot of that has to do with not riding, so, it's out of most people's minds. Like you, I only rode my bike once last year and really need to take the time and just do it. Had something happen to my right wrist this fall, and I couldn't hold a cup of coffee let alone a 900 lb. Venture. And now just like that, it's better?
I dropped Face book, Twitter and Instagram. Will never participate in organizations that try to control what people think. Hopefully these monopolies will be addressed by our elected officials this year.
