NOTE TO SELF - riding a bike that's WAYYYY to small with shorts - no helmet - and some "liquid" courage......NOT a good idea.

Now back in '89 I his a tree stump sticking out of the ice with a borrowed 340 AC JAG on XMAS break.
Broke a chunck off my hip that attached to the main muscle that runs down my leg - smashed my knee. - ALL required surgery.
But before that I had to tie my torn up leg to my other leg with my scarf and ride the machine 3 miles out of the bush to the closest highway, then I passed out.
