Hey guys it is with some guilt that I am finally able to post up. Many times I tried but just could not seem to be able to finish. The last few weeks have been really tough mentally,physically and emotionally. The surgeon is confident that the tumor has been totally removed so that is a good thing. The bad is my liver is fooked. Today was chemo training and what kind of chemo they are going to hit me with. Gonna be at least 6 months worth and hope for the best. That starts in 4 more days. It sure was a kick in the ass after only been retired for just over a month. I owe our own Nivin a huge load of gratitude. Yes he is part of my renal group and a decision that he made turned around one large obstacle that was causing some me some major issues. Thank you my friend I will forever be grateful. So that's pretty much it for now. Thanks to each and everyone of you guys and gals for the good wishes. Bless you all. Maybe one day I'll be able to shake your hands and thank you in person.

I followed Andy and Jacob on the 4th to get some footage of their riding and finally got it uploaded last night

You'll need more than a couple hours to get to fun roads & back. A good "short" route is 83 S (to Coshocton), 541W, 79N, 36E (short jog), 715W, 206N, 62E, 83N. A shorter route, but hardly worth it is 83S, 62W (just south of Millersburg), 520W then find your way home. 83 starts to get some sweepers just south of Wooster, but that's 40 miles or so South. The best roads are all south of I70 and east of I77. West of I77 but still south of I70 are 78, 377, 676 which are pretty nice. Our usual "meet spot" for rides is a 2 hour ride each way for me & I'm not that far from you. If you live in North Ridgeville & don't want to venture too far from home, ride West River Road to Valley City & back.

Thanks for checking sir. Let us know if you need anything. We can mow lawns, fix cars...whatever you need.

Soon enough they will be bringing oreos and having perfect mix cups.

If you like the way a supersport looks and all of the sport they offer, maybe consider adding bar risers which would help alleviate wrist and back soreness.

I had an R6 which I sold bc it was so uncomfortable... I loved it but after about an hour or so, I wanted to get off of it so badly I couldn't really take it on all day rides. I had a 2006 and had no issues with the bike at all in the 2 years I had it. Now I'm pretty tall and found the leg room cramped as well as pain in my wrists after a short time, but man it was fast and it made me smile just like you did on the test ride. I was sad to see it go, but there's no way I could have taken it out of state like I did with my Monster. Maybe you need to look at other/bigger bikes with upright ergo's? Maybe look for other demo's to see if a super sport is really what you want? Good luck in your search!!

I am downloading my last few months worth of photos ave can across this one. My thoughts and prayers are with you Jerry.

Hey @Bad324

and I'm out. Jill had to bail off her horse yesterday and did some significant damage to her back. She's going to be layed up for a while.
