Having been a biker myself for mucho years, I sympathize, Blackcatter. I worked at a Motorcycle Show last year, and the one thing all the bikers seemed to have in common, were either scrapes and bruises they would gleefully exhibit, or pronounced limps.(Also a few more missing limbs than I enjoyed noting). Need to be a hardy (and fairly stupid) breed to keep getting back in the saddle.

My nurse friend told me motorbikes are referred to by the medical community as "Donorcycles".

I'm bikeless here in the UK and miss them dreadfully, but the weather rather precludes them for me. I've been too spoiled by riding them in Greece, and Hawaii.

So, climb right back up there, Blackcatter, but do please make sure you've filled out your donor card!
