Sure thing.  If we did it up at the lake, we might be able to get some of the South Carolinians there too since it's right on the border.  And it might sound fun enough to draw some of the other Georgians.



i'm up for that myself, i'm in columbia

The hand's coming along Kghost.  I can make a fist, but there are still some pops and clicks when I do it.  Basically I've got the range of motion back, but not the strength and still get pain when I do move it.  I have to continually keep restretching the last bit of making a fist.  By the end of the day I can do it, but when I wake up it's back to where I can't close the fist entirely.  I remember when it was like this just for moving it at all, so I figure in time it'll work back in.  The numb patch on my ring finger is still where it was at my last update.

I've been taking short rides and I got okayed to do one handed work.  When I do use it, it's not as coordinated as it used to be, but good enough to work the clutch. 

I'm working at the local Ducati dealership selling, so I'm not doing the physical work I was doing before.  I'm really used to being busy with my hands at work, so it's a real change.  I have to console myself with being around beautiful Italian bikes.  ;)

Everything's moving forward, just slowly. 

As far as a date for a ride, someone throw out a date and let's see if it works.

Keep at it man. Pulling for you.
peace,
Laugh at least once a day.
Life  $ucks, then you die.
You are entitled to your own opinions, but not your own facts.
God forces us to live with  non-believers to test our resolve.
