Thanks for the encouraging words, B.

Just don't feel like taking a chance with a back injury.  Proper care now can be the difference between long term chronic problems later down the road.  3-4 days of riding isn't what most chiropractors would classify as "proper care".  :'(

Totally understand that - I had to make the same decision!  Hope you feel better Jim!  We'll all make the next HC trip for sure! [thumbsup]

Wow!!  :o

Glad you're ok Jim. That was total "Dukes of Hazzard" / "Smokey & the Bandit"! Was there a little part of you going "YEEEEEHAAAAW"

Seriously... glad you're ok man.  [thumbsup]

Thanks Will.  [thumbsup]

Should I change my name to DukeBoys for a while?  [laugh]  Na... SuperDuke might sue me for copyright enfringement.  [cheeky]

Woohoo!  Y'all do some wicked wheelies and synchronized endos for me at HC.  Sounds like everyone has a carefree weekend to look forward too!   ;)

You could still kick back and relax at K.R. headquarters. Honestly, you shouldn't be at home worrying about the details of the wreck. That'll only agitate your tender back. You need R&R my friend. You woudn't need to ride to have fun as you know. Do you have a hot tub at home? Surely you won't have gallons of beer at your disposal.


+1, relax enjoy the weather and get away for a few days.  This is the perfect time to be sitting around the fire and kicking back.  Round up Lyndy and have her drive the SUV down for a nice country weekend!

You'll be excused from riding this time out [thumbsup]  Come check out the vintage bikes at the Harvest rally
