motorcycles, and my very own mid-life crisis

Yes, I am looking at motorcycles. Mostly Virago's and Vulcans. The Virago I fell in love with in the eighties when my friends MB and Cindy lived in Santa Fe and they had a Virago- God that was a beautiful bike. I had a little Suzuki GS250T, and it was a great starter bike, but I have always dreamed of having a bigger, more usable for long trips, more ... well... powerful bike. The Vulcan I saw for the first time in San Francisco in the early nineties, and I liked how low slung it was for my admittedly shorter legs. Either of these is okay with me, so come Monday I quit smoking and start riding. Wooohooo. I need insurance, a new helmet, a lightweight jacket and not very much gas. I will save enough to almost pay the payment!

News on the knee.... still great, though yesterday I had a scare with the other one! But as for this one, I think a couple of weeks of PT should make it just right. Especially with the new bike under me.
