Bike Riding

[leapyrtwins]

I've adopted my older brother's mantra. He's 12 years older than I. "While I can't stop my body from getting older, I can be immature forever"...

Along those same lines, I'm kind of partial to the words of Jimmy Buffett "I'm growing older, but not up"

Donnalynn,

My Dad's family came over in around 1915-1920.  They lived in Hamilton, Ont.  They had to anglosize the their first and last names.  Back than Canadians were not tolerant to a different sounding name.  Her name was actually Veronica, like my sister.  My sister goes by Robin and my Aunt Ronnie.  She married a man from Denmark and his family settled in the Detroit Michigan area, so that's were she lived.  Oh I could just go on and on.  I love history and my families is very interesting.

Thanks for kind words.

Hello, all. 1st post on the site.  I am having my surgery in 2 days and getting ready to set off for Duke today.  I am an avid biker.   I own 5 bikes, used to ride almost daily, and my biggest fear is not being able to ride again post surgery.  I promise to jump back on the back on the bike as soon as possible, and to complete the 24 Hours of Booty (a charitable bike event in CLT, NC) this year for the 6th consecutive year.

Thanks for posting this thread.  It's exactly what I needed to read today.

Best,
Chico
