I'm riding while I still can. But those days are clearly numbered. (I've been looking at eBikes.)
Glad you survived. Sounded ugly.

Bummer. 4 wheels, huh? You going to stick with something comfortable or perhaps rock a 440 Road Runner?

Bill, accidents can happen regardless of the vehicle but the safety level in a cage is definitely much higher as well as creature comforts! Glad you are mending and praying your body mends as close to perfect as possible. Stay safe and enjoy life!!!!
After all that's the benefit of being alive, having the ability to make decisions and enjoy them!
Your wisdom and experiences will always be welcomed here, so please don't leave - pop in every once in a while, to keep us on the straight and narrow!

Re: forever bikeless in San Jose..…..
Yep, You were the first to reply to my post in VROC about getting a Voyager (750Chris).
I may have more questions that you can help me with, as well as others. So stick around!

Maybe a Polaris Slingshot would be a good in between.
