Re: please send Pete well wishes!

Thanks, Gordon! Everywhere I got to cut-n-paste this message, there you are.

Need to lay down for some rest, will try to log back on later.

Thanks again to everyone, it means the world to me.

And Conq, there are no plans to quit riding, so quit asking me if I have any parts for sale!!!

Y'all are fricking hilarious, doing wonders for my spirits...and a helluva number on my ribs!!!

I'll get back to y'aal after my surgery on Wed. My main concern is the shoulder socket, which is currently in three distinctly separate pieces. My left arm hangs about 2 inches lower than my right. Save the knuckle-dragger jokes.

bent/busted: left clip-on, left rearset, left frame slider, very minor cracks in left-side bodywork. the one that concerns me most is the bent frame slider bolt...not sure what that did to the frame/engine mount. i will be taking it to gmd computrack regardless.
