    Jeeez.... give em an inch....

    Just hobbled out to the garage on my crutches to take a photo or two and what do i find... My wife has found a new use for my broken bike.... How quick they are to take advantage....

    [IMG][/IMG]

    She has a tack shed about 20 feet from the garage, but she figured I wont be using the bike for a while so she'd save the extra walk.....

          Well,
          I guess if she can put the saddle on the bike, you can ride........
          Get well soon, and hope your back on the bike for your spring!

                          Gives new meaning to the term "Back in the saddle" doesn't it?

                          It actually looks kind of cool... would make an interesting theme bike anyway...

                              I wonder if that would be more comfortable than an XJ seat?? Probably be just about the same.. lol.

                                                  ...dropped it going round a corner and broke my leg, about 7 weeks ago.

                                                  The wife reckons the saddle's probably a safer seat for me at the moment, but I cant figure out where to put the cinch strap...

                                                      When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.
