Almost three years now. Upgrading to the Lightning r-84, so sweet. Surgery tomorrow, a little aneurysm issue, but short hospital stay expected, one day ICU, two days on the regular floor, then home and on the bike in a week. WHOO HOO!!!! The new bike, as seen in the profile, arrives next Monday, so I can hardly wait!!! This forum has been the best. Your support has carried me through. Over 1,200 miles in the last two months on the recumbent. Love it! Talk with you all soon.
