Happy New Years everybody!

I rang in the new year properly by missing a turn due to Darkness and watery eyes... luckily I still have my reflexes and managed to avoid the tree and electrical box... and I have a newfound confidence in my facial reconstruction... if it can hold up to smacking off a railroad track I think I'm good.

My wife was watching Rehab Addict this morning and her mom has a big red in the garage. It's nice to start off the year with trikes on my mind... hopefully that is a good omen that I will get it sometime to ride this year!

Maybe the DIY channel isn't that bad after all...

Sucks about the ticket, isn't $300 a bit steep?

Those are some good resolutions, hopefully you can make them happen!

Thanks for the well-wishes, aside from the broken nose, facial damage, a concussion, some loose teeth, and a probably broken hand I'm good. I just keep humming my theme song and carrying on…

Heal up fast.

Hit the Casino with the GF on New Years Eve for a bit. Came home. Cooked up some steaks on the BBQ...

Only resolution is spending more time with friends and family in 2007.

About the ticket- there was no # on the ticket itself but its 150. For every 10mph over. I was 70 in a 55 zone
So 225. + a 90 dollar court fee? Every one was speeding but i was leading the pack he said. (I WAS)
The mph dropped from 65 to 55 for about a 5mile stretch im sure they sit there all day and just pick and choose...
He was doing his job.
But anyway- life goes on

I'm resolute about making no resolutions. I have too much to finish before I start anything else! ;) :beer

And continuing on my being inundated with trike related things since NYE, my friend sent me this today…I think it's a Big Red...

Shep, sucks about all that…but kudos on taking it so well. I've found in my later years that a little attitude adjustment and change of perspective can go a long way. Like you, I'm a glass-is-half-full kinda guy. Cheers!

Camino, my guess would be that the trike is a US90, perhaps of 1974 vintage. It appears at about 3:16 into the video.

Just riding fast in freezing air with no goggles my eyes tend to water because I'm a sensitive guy:)

I'll take that as a compliment. I've never been known for my visual prowess.

Dang Camino, take care of yourself!

I resolve to ride more, drink less, spend more wisely......OK one of the three is going to happen; can't win'em all! I've got two lake rides in since my 144 sq/mile playground froze over three weeks ago. Managed to get frostbite on my cheeks already but shiite happens up this way. It's the cost of doing business! Happy New Year!
