Hello from wintery Wisconsin.

My first bike was a 85 Nighthawk 700S. Now I'm wishing I would have kept it just for fun...but sold it when my husband bought a 03 Road King Classic and I got to take over his 91 Sporty.

Then we had a bad crash, both of those bikes got totalled, my husband was killed and I got some nice hardware in my leg.

But the accident didn't keep me from riding. I bought a 2002 Super Glide in the spring and I love it. Of course there's snow on the ground now to keep me from riding, so I have picked up a new hobby for winter. Knitting. It's relaxing and passes the time. I'm a member of a couple knitting forums, but I get tired of knits and purls all the time, so came here looking for some motorcycle talk.

So sorry to hear of your loss.... it must have been very hard.

You sound like you are doing well and doing it in extraordinarily diverse fashion. Glad you are still riding... it is obviously in your blood.

Welcome to the forum... you just happened to catch me on the way to my ballet class.

You know.... I kind of have this thing for hardware... care to post a pic or too?

I'll have to look for my x rays. They're neat.

Hey Knit socks,
Glad to hear you're aboard. Your story IS inspirational and I have a lady friend where I do my banking that went through the same thing last spring and she still rides, too. That just goes to show how much moxie you LADIES have. God Bless and hope to hear from you soon.

Sorry about your loss. My friend lost his wife last year in a motorcycle accident. Accidents to occur and they are never something we think will happen to any of us, but they do.

Glad to see you are riding again.
