New Ride

Ok, it's been almost 3 years since the accident. I love riding again. On Tuesday, I was told that I have two carotid aneurysms and need surgery Wednesday next week and again in a few more weeks for the second aneurysm.

After a bit of freaking out, I spent a butload of money and ordered my Lightning r-84. I am allowed to ride it on the 26th. Fingers crossed that all goes well. Accepting any butterflies, wishes, prayers, and just moments of sanity.

My family and friends will be here, but inside I am in a bit of a freaking out stage. Outside, "It's all good" is what everyone sees. I'll let you know how it all goes. In the mean time, my current Rans Rocket bike is getting lots of exercise. Thank you all for letting me just be me and for all the support you give. ;)

Wow! Gorgeous ride.
Sending good thoughts your way that everything goes well.

Fingers are crossed and good vibes coming your way!!

Don't freak out.
It's gonna be fine, just picture yourself riding that beautiful bike and that will be the new reality before you know it.

I hope the surgery goes well, and you recover quickly.

That bike is going to be FUN! Enjoy!

Great Bike!
Sending some vibes your way for a speedy recovery.
I look forward to hearing some ride reports when you get out on your new baby.:)

Great bike! Good for you! Best of luck to you.........everything is going to be fine;)

Good luck with the surgery. You will be riding in no time.

It's so nice to hear from you again. What a treat to have that bike waiting for you after you recover from your surgery. Wishing you all the best both during and after your operation. :)

Best wishes for a very quick recovery... you will do just fine. Especially knowing what waits at home when you have recovered!

wow!! you're back!!! great ride!!! It's been so long since I saw your name. I'm happy you're riding again.

wow, carotid aneurism. that's scary. I hope they can fix you up better than new!

Good luck with the surgery and wishing you a speedy recovery!

What a beautiful bike!

Tomorrow am it is. :eek: Thanks for all of the kind words. Got a 50 miler in on this past Tuesday and a hilly 25 in 1:45 today. Total of 130 miles this week, slacking, but cannot wait to get home, get better and put that lightning to the test. Anyone wanna go cross country and raise money for Operation Scarlet, Shar Pei Rescue? My three legged babies are from there and thinking next year after my surgeries are done, it is time to make some money for this wonderful group. Love you guys!!!! :D

Great to see you! Good luck with the surgery, and love that new bike!

Good luck with the surgery. You are such a tough cookie!

(Great dogs BTW...) :)
