Frustrated with My Motorcycle
Time to vent my frustration, sorry. The other week I was on my way home from school and I felt a vibration when I turned. Then I found that it occurred with leaning as well. The vibration was so bad that I was concerned the bike would fall over when I was riding. That meant…
Life Got In the Way
Hello reader(s). Sorry for no postings this week. I have been super busy with things related to something I will be posting about in the nearish future. But life is generally good. The ladies in my house all were at Girl Scout Camp this weekend. Some had a good time and others didn’t. It happens….
Bicycle and Insurance Update
Things are almost over. I had physical therapy yesterday again and the person was ok with me not coming back. I have no pain in the shoulder so no concerns there. So, that meant I talked the insurance adjuster today and he and I settled up on the medical side of things. I am going…

The VW Lives Again
