Bound to Happen!

Grown Men displaying their Toys!

Seriously , is an Exhaust System named Sharon ever going to sound as good as one named Shark?

Maybe I just love the sound ( and Torque) of a V-twin!

Anyhow, Chris , My Wife has been in a clinic for 2 weeks and I have mainly been going to see her on a Motorcycle.

The above photo is the actual Machine.

Wednesday Afternoon I climbed aboard , and as I pulled onto a dual double lane road called " The Highway" in Florida , the right hand lane which I was pulling into suddenly had a lane-changer at high speed switch into the lane.

To avoid being turned into a Vulture repast I hit the centre island , trapping my leg under the bike, as it fell over.

All the cars drove past and I managed to extricate myself , but could not pick the Bike up with my one good hand.

A Truck Driver stopped and helped me pick it up ( just a few minor scratches.)

I checked that my left hand could operate the Clutch lever and proceeded to make my way to the Clinic to see Chris .

The Traffic was horrendous, all the traffic lights on the West Rand appearing to be out.

Weaving in and out with effectively one good arm!

I am especially impressed with the fact that I leaned my left arm on my Knee while seeing Chris and she never noticed a thing ,

Until I left, told her I had fallen ( nothing to do with wheeled devices) .

Falling off Motorcycles is not something she would want to hear?

Needless to say I have not been sleeping very well.

Found the Old Brace I had to wear on my left arm for a long time after:-https://steemit.com/life/@awgbibb/chronicles-of-alan-lucas-9

And have not ridden the Bike since!
