Thanks for the kind words
Several members of this forum sent their condolences recently when learning of my ex-wife's recent death. Thanks, they meant alot.
Diving is alot like riding. We accept a certain amount of risk. We try to mitigate that risk by wearing helmets and other gear. Scuba divers are taught to dive with a buddy. She, as well as many spearfishermen do not buddy dive. She still may have died on the dive, but at least her body would notbe lost to the ocean.
Maybe what I am asking for is just a few weeks of ultrasafe riding. Maybe when you get on your bikes you can just think about the pain that my ex-wifes death had caused for many people and say to yourself 'People love me and need me, I am going to ride easy today'. I know how much fun our bikes can be, but losing someone close is really aweful, I just hope none of us cause our loved ones any pain.
Let's just try for one month to keep the rubber side down and no trips to the ER..
Thanks,
Tommy

RE: Thanks for the kind words
Thanks. I also got some other bad news today, my girlfriends twin sister was killed in greece recently. I don't have details, but she was kinda crazy and probably got in with the wrong crowd. Life is fragile, lets just get through the rest of this month without a problem.
