What a Great Day!

[NancysToy]

Today we had frost in the morning, but after lunch it was sunny and in the upper fifties. I couldn't stand it any more, so I decided to ride to my Physical Therapy appointment. My surgery was 37 days ago, and I was beginning to wonder if I would ever ride again. (It didn't seem to keep me from pre-ordering my RT-S, though. ) What a relief to ride again! I rode my BMW R1100RT as it is a bit easier on my leg than the Spyder. It was a bit tight, and I cramped some, but it was worth the effort. I am still grinning! After I rode to get gas and rode the long way home, I decided to get out the Spyder and try that, too.

After a PT session and a half hour ride on the Beemer, it was a bit tight and uncomfortable, but it was good to ride a Spyder again. Man, do I love these things!!! Thank you once again, BRP, for giving us such a wonderful toy. I could probably only ride the Spyder for a half hour or so at a time right now. I spent half that today and it was getting cramped and uncomfortable, but I was certainly able to get it done. I think I could do an hour or so pretty easily on my BMW, and may even try a ninety minute ride to a club meeting Saturday. As soon as the swelling goes down some more (or my Spyder RT-S comes in) I can do more. Great to be back in the saddle again. Sorry to go on and on but I just had to share the joy with someone. What a great day!!!

Glad to hear you're getting better, fella.:thumbup: Heck, I get a smile on my face, just going out to the garage to climb on my Spider...:f_spider:

IMHO, psychotherapy is as important as physiotherapy, and you sure are a testament to that! Good on ya, and keep it up!

Cheers,
Rod.
