I replaced the alternator in my Sonoma (wasn't that a song by The Knack?).

Pretty sure the song was My Scrotum, they just didn’t have the ball sack to say it back then.

Thanks for sharing the awesome pics, El. Looks like a lot of fun. I love that little cabin! Is that a solar panel on the top gable?

Yes sir, everything up there is solar powered including the satellite TV LOL! Got to tell you though buddy this trip damn near killed me. I did not realize how out of shape I was until about 30 miles before we got to the cabin. I felt like I had gone 10 rounds with Mike Tyson when we parked the bikes.

I either need to get into shape, or start selling some dirt bikes. I’m going to try the exercise thing first as I really do enjoy the scenery out there, but my back is going to have the final say.

Nah, You're thinking of My Scrotum. It took a lot of balls to put that song out when they did. It helped them get a lot of girls in the sack tho.

ETA: ! Beat by El whilst I was typing! Good thing I'm not teste. I hate to have to go nuts.

I was at the dealer today looking at "side by eaches".......just for that reason.

Baggers and tourers are easy on the back......just saying

What’s really scary about this aging thing is the eyesight. I’ve been wearing glasses since I was 7, but until a couple years back I always rode with contacts. Now I use bifocals, or whatever you call the fancy ones that don’t show lines.

As of the last year if I put contacts in my vision out to 10’or 20’ is terrible. No problem on a road bike, but when your trying to pick you line through sharp lava rock at a walking pace it’s incredibly frustrating.

I started this ride with contacts in, but after a couple hours I swapped them out for my glasses. I have OTG goggles, but the movement of the helmet, goggles and glasses combined with the owl like restrictions of these no line multi focal type glasses and my mild vertigo symptoms can make me want to blow chunks as I bounce through the rocks.

Like all that’s not enough my blood sugar is pretty high and that seems to effect my vision. It’s like I need a couple different prescriptions depending on the day. Aging sucks.

What I'm doing today, sitting here watching it snow, waiting for enough to be called to work to run "The Beast".

I think it's only nadtural to do so.

[El Camexican]

It`s that blood sugar thing that changes your vision .........it`s that warning shot across your bow.........you must eat like a zombie don`t eat fat people that like candy......... em`kay ? ..........and guess what ?......... your vision can improve ! .....how high ? ......you can pm the # and get chewed out by me later ........doctors suck ........i`m gonna fire the one i`m on now he`s the second one this yr........all they care about is you not suing them ........you say vertigo ......i won`t say the "D" word ......but it can destroy your equilibrium so you can`t pass a sobriety test by feckin cops ........what are you 40`s ?

I know what your talking about and actually part of my visual issue is that mine has improved since I dropped sugar consumption. Haven’t drank a conventional pop for over 2 years and don’t put any sugar into my coffee (that was a lot)

Thing is, if I wear a prescription that reflects a couple months of strict diet all it seems to take is a small laps in discipline and I’m back to my old prescription. The vertigo seems to be sinus related. Got some issues on my left side, can make flying hell at times.

I repeat, aging sucks!

So me being 47- i dont drink coffee, ok maybe a couple iced coffee's in the summer but i do drink a mtn dew 2-liter a day on avg. i never have had to wear glasses, vision was always great, but i've noticed in the last couple yrs seeing things upclose has gotten fuzzier. Think its blood sugar ralated? Hmmm what to do?
Has anyone here tried that lazer surgury?
My biggest issue lately has been those energy saving light bulbs(hate them) there not bright enough, i'm always complaining to the wife how dark it is. But maybe its just my eyes?
Or, same subject but has anyone been in a restaurant just before dinner time and they dimm the lights while your eating?
Sorry but i need to see what im eating or read the menu....
Yup aging sucks!!!!
Maybe i should start drinking and wont care about these little things. Ok maybe not.
Shitz, my spelling used to be better also.........

Get tested (buy a glucose meter) and do blood work once a yr ........Shep we do care about you pal .!!

Thanks glamy, will do
I get my physicals every other yr- i smoke cigaretts, the dr always writes me a prescription for quitting pills(no thank you) i enjoy smoking. The dr always says my lungs must sound awful too but is amazed when she listens and im in good health lungwise. Not looking forward to that butt probe at 50 either!!! May have take a pass at that one.

2 litres of mtn dew a day? Been nice knowing you Shep.

Well i figure its 99% water 1% fruit juice and yes lots of sugar/ the town water out here is nasty, put it this way my father in law worked 30yrs in the town water dept- did the testing, everytime he has done the water purity test it just barely passes/ put it this way he doesnt drink it (he knows whats in it).

But yes i do need to change something i agree.
