    Smile Back in the saddle

    Well I finally did it. 9months after accident (It was a doozie, 3 months in hospital) I am finally fit enough to take to the road again. First time was friday. It just around the block on GPZ600R, then yesterday, I thought just a few more Kms....and wholie shit!..before I knew it, we were at Okoroire, then I was in Waiuku tavern having an ale . Stayed the night, then journeyed back home. 660kms round trip...(A bit of tiki-touring) My ass is sore, shoulder, arms...everything really, but really happy I did it.

    Right back to my smoking chair outside, bourbon in hand...and Ill replay the whole adventure in my head again.....shit I was scared...nervous at first.
