  1. Wait what? How did he get banned already?
  2. I'm ready. I have a bug out destination and a bug in plan. Let's do this.
  3. That is pretty sweet. It does look a little bit like hemp.
  4. Dude, this is really impressive. I thought I had a tough time restoring my old '83 Nighthawk, and I didn't even have to drop the engine...
  5. MRI is scheduled for next Thursday.
  6. The amount of road rash she will have on her arm...
  7. Keep it up. It is fun watching this come together.
  8. I used to want to be an astronaut when I was little. Now I can pay half a mil to be one.
  9. ^How is the guy on the left keeping his bike up in the squid season pic?
  10. That actually came out far better than I would have expected.
  11. Wow, some of those are just bad. Being just recently down, I can say that the only damage at all was to my non-armored legs. Everywhere that I had gear on was just fine.
  12. ^ The address is on Battlefield Pkwy
  13. It definitely is not what I want to hear. I'm not gonna lie, I'm actually pretty worried. It may be corny and half (or more) of you don't even believe in marriage, but my wedding is a big deal to me. I'm scared that I won't be able to dance in our first dance, I won't be able to carry her across the threshold, and that I won't be able to be as maneuverable for our crazy monkey sex afterward.
  14. Well it looks like the damage to the bike is only cosmetic. I was out there the other day to inspect it. It fired up and ran fine (I can't ride it yet to test). The scratches in the side fairing don't seem too deep so I'm actually going to try to clean, sand, and buff them out. There is one nick on the upper fairing where gravel actually took a small piece of plastic out. As for my knee, I just got out of another doctor's appointment and he fears my ACL may be torn and I might need some major surgery on it. Please pray for me that my ACL is not torn. I was hoping to go the Gap in a couple weeks and I'm getting married in a month. Thanks, all for your support. **Updates: I was able to painfully ride the bike the mile or so to my place from my buddy's. Bike runs great. I washed it up and the scratches are barely noticeable. I might not even have to sand them. Hopefully, the wax will hide most of it. I got the results of my MRI yesterday. I DID NOT TEAR MY ACL!!!! :D I did tear my lateral meniscus and my ham string, but they don't believe that I will need surgery. I'm still in a lot of pain and can't put much weight on my leg. I also can't bend it much past 90º, but I'm optimistic for the recovery! Thank you all for your encouragement and please keep me in your prayers for a full, speedy recovery! ***Final Updates*** Well, I saw a specialist the other day and found out I have a lot of liquid under my knee cap and I also tore my Quadriceps. So in total I tore my lateral meniscus, my ham string, and my quadriceps, got swelling, liquid under the knee cap, and a bruised patella. I do not have to have surgery, but I am going to be in physical therapy for twelve weeks (with sturg's woman ) I rode my bike about a mile today. It is getting better, the only thing I have trouble with is downshifting, just because of the angle it puts my leg at. I was the bike and buffed the scratches. They don't catch the eye anymore, you can't tell they are there unless you look closely (except for the chip in the front fairing). I should be pain free in under four weeks the doc said. I'm hoping that means just in time for the wedding! Thank you all for you support. I will miss going to the Gap with everyone, but Lord willing I will be there for sure next year.
  15. The signage doesn't matter. People can't even figure out four-way stops...
