I finally got the chance to take Winona out of storage. Who knows, I may be able to get back in the saddle soon...

Do you have the blessing of your doctor(s)?

I was going to ask you if you started riding again. I was working at the park across the street from your place yesterday and saw her sitting in front of your car.

Stop by and say hi, I there every Wednesday night.

Got no blessing yet. I go back on the 29th and we'll see what happens.

I'm supposed to leave for Vegas on the 3rd...

One step at a time, bro. You'll get there.

This is step one.

Yeah, man, don't be hurrying to get back on the bike. You need to take it easy. This is serious stuff. Back it out and wash/wax it or something. Get all those nagging little bug spots off completely. Buy some new grips or something.

. . . but don't just hop on and start riding. You need to take it one step at a time.

<glad you're feeling well enough to consider riding>

Screw riding...

Are you even supposed to exert yourself yet?

Psst ... If you are going to Vegas in 2 weeks, you don't need a blessing. All you need is a box of condoms and maybe a few little blue pills. Everything else is just luxury.
