    Don't tell my wife

    I took the bike out for a ride this afternoon.

              If she found out she would kill me in my sleep.

              The day they released me from the hospital we were pulling into walgrens to get something to cover the hole in my side so I could shower. I heard a song that I like and told her I couldn't think of a thing I would rather do than twist the throttle right now. She looked at me like I had three heads and told me I was a phuucking idiot.

                  I know the feeling. I needed fuel badly in Banshee. Had me thinking I had some issues to solve, till I realized it needed reserve on, but only on one side.

                  So in I go and tell SWMBO that I need to ride the bike to the petrol station for a fill up. She looks at me and simply said, "if you wreck, I'm not picking your azz up"!!
                  Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

                      Good for you.
                      There's no rule, as far as I know, that when you get back on the horse that threw you, you gotta tell your spouse....

                          Does that mean I have to tell her about our nights in Vermont?

                              Exactly what do you mean about that??????

                              I'm glad you're back on the horse and feeling better.

                                  Phil,
                                  I'm glad you were able to satisfy those withdrawal shakes by twisting the throttle again.
                                  I won't touch the Vermont comment w/out further explanation!!!! HMmmmm?

                                      Hi dpotter,
                                      good that you are able to ride again. But how long have you been married that you think your wife won't find out?
