Nearly three months to the day, and I finally got the S2 back out.

It felt sooooo good : )

Although, I had to a) reduce rear preload from 2-up to solo, from Homecoming. Then, I had to reduce it *again*, from normal bodyweight to recovering-from-the-accident bodyweight (30 lbs light). Once I got *that* right, it handled and felt like a dream. Again.

So nice. Now all three have been out. Life is in order again : )

Sounds like you are ready to ride that S2 out to Colorado....

I dunno, man. As underweight as I am (6'4", 165), my scrawny butt can barely make it across town right now. I'm eating all the "bad stuff" I can, on top of my good food for healing...but I still can't put on any weight. Grrr... Guess I'm just burning too many calories in PT to be able to store anything.

And I'd probably get run out of CO if I showed up with it in the back of the truck (I'd deserve it, too!). : )

You can always park the truck at my house and we can ride to the mountains!

I took a little ribbing about my "trailer queen" at Homecoming. I deserved it.

Yeah, somehow I avoided the TQ ribbing...and I even unloaded right there in the parking lot! <shrug> : )
