[thestud25]

hmmm what else

If you rode your bike it would have been quicker and you would have had some exercise!!

[Mr_RPM]

lol, well I cant ride a bike. I have a mild form of a neuromuscular disorder which causes me to have poor balance. Which is reason for 9 of those 12 surgeries. so i never picked up on it as a kid because i was not coordinated to catch myself in the event of a fall and now that im old enough to understand how it works and strong enough to do it I have never really tried it. I can even ride 2 wheels on the trike just fine, its just one of those childhood fears I have avoided. lol
So that makes 2 threads of stuff for me. lol

but yeah, i sure do wish I could have taken a bike.
I should just buy myself a damn BMX bike and just do it. If i fail then all I have is a few scratches and a bike for sale. lol

[oldskool83]

[rray62]

I'm Rob, and I'm scared to death of bridges!! I drive an automated garbage truck. Before I got my residential route, I used to have to drive the overhead trucks that service dumpsters. The best part of that was climbing into the back and shoveling out the slop while maggots were dropping on my head. The length of my hair is now past my waistline, and my wife reminds me daily that it makes me look way older than 38. I play guitar and drums and love metal, but I deeply respect banjo players. I got the nickname "thumb throttle" because I've had to put one on every dirt bike I've owned. And I will probably cry some in August when my son leaves for college.

[3wheely]

Hey Jonathan I happen to be that guy (read on). My name is Marc and from Florida. I have an 11 year old daughter and a 5 year old son. My son has a very rare syndrome and Jonathan to your above thread he has six fingers on each hand. Pretty cool actually. We haven't decided whether to remove them or not. Anyway he consumes the majority of my time and what little time I have left I'm working a my 200x restore or riding. Good thing about Florida the weather is always nice.

I am a courier driver, keeps me busy but i love it, before this job i worked at a precast concrete retaining wall factory for 8 years, the last 2 of which were the most depressing of my life i reckon! I love anything with an engine, always tinkering with something, though they dont always run right after lol. I have my YT 175 (hence the username) and an 01 banshee, LOVE my two strokes :)

My little girl was only 4 months old when I bought her a .22 rifle. I almost bought her a mid 70's Honda Z50 trail bike yesterday. But I realized what the wife would have done had I brought it home.
