aches and pains

When I was 37 my old boss told me... "after you turn 45, its all just pathing up after that". I just turned the big six oh and he wa so right. It really pays to stretch some before each ride and ride within my means...crashes hurt so much and so long.

Do you take Ibuprofen beofre a ride? I have friends that do. I don't, but often wish I did.

4 hours of Walker Valley on a 450 sure leaves it's mark.

Why wait.....Premedicate. Troy341

Thanks for the advice. I only have one kidney, a gift from my brother, so I do take rides with a considerable amount of caution. They put transplants in the front behind the beltline so I dont want any big impacts, so I poke along under control. Do I miss hauling ass with the expectation that a crash WILL happen? Of course I do, but Im glad to have a second chance at life, and I can still have fun being Capt. Slow. Just as point of interest, the kidny doc that tests me told me that Ibuprofin is a known kidney killer, so be easy with that stuff my friends. I cant really put into words how shitty and short life can be with declining renal health.... NOW if saturday really is clear and 60...... VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!

Well that's cool the kidney transplant worked for you! In a lot of cases it doesn't, and.....well, those people doesn't get to experience what you do. Keep on riding, have fun, and be careful!

PS: Stretching really does make all the difference in the world!! I can attest to this! Ha ha
