How are you progressing on the healing process Vidpix?

That was a bad break. I hope you are getting around and mostly out of the worst of it. I tore up my left rotator cuff last Christmas when I fell down the front cement steps with tree in right hand, stupidly tried to fend off the driveway with my left arm. The right rotator cuff was blown out in '96 on a GS1100, then aggravated when I hit a stealthy telephone pole lying horizontal in deep grass last Summer. This certainly changed my life.

Now my knees are both beginning to crumble. So all at once. Crap! I am riding my bicycle daily now trying to see what I can do about all of this! I am starting to feel old
