Awesome pic, Wayne! We seem to have matching bikes, lol...at least, the colour is similar (mine is coral and yours looks orange on my computer).
You look so happy and proud in the pic; how did you like it? I absolutely love the feeling of freedom I get on my bike. It's like being a kid again, lol.
Congrats on getting the scale moving again too; woohoo!

I was filled with much joy and pride for sure. I recalled many lovely memories of bike trips I made with friends back in the late 70' early 80s .
I am looking forward to taking the bike with me camping this week. My buddy is in a scooter and we've never toured campgrounds together,..now I will be able to keep up and he can scooterzoom wherever he wants. lol
Thanks everyone for rhe kind comments. I spent 10 hours working in my woodshop today. 10 fricking hours.... I would barely last an hour this time last year without my back, knees and feet killing me. Making my wife 5ft Lighthouse. I love life again.
Way to go! Keep up the great work!
