Nice pics Grado. A nice colorful sunset in orange, pink, greys and blues is a gift.

Best way to get pics to come out vertically is to take the pic with your phone sideways.

If the pic is taken with your phone straight up and down you can edit it by (on an iPhone ) clicking EDIT button then the CROP button and there should be a flip it square in the top left corner of the screen while in crop mode.

Anyone know why we don’t hear from Ktrip

I’ve been wondering where Oldironow has been hiding????

Dialysis anything to do with it?
That’s just crazy.
Hang in there! Wishing you well

Yes, dialysis might be an avenue but they don’t know why and it doesn’t happen to other dialysis patients.

Thank you Grady but there is no traveling in my near future. As least until I can get out of the wheelchair.  


**EDIT***
This was supposed to be in the BSA folder to Grady. I not sure how to copy it and paste

How’s it going?

A long time ago my kid got on the back of my Alpina and we hauled ass all over the woods.

Sorry for the late reply. Just behind at work with all the doc visits and such.
Things are starting to look up. The dog bite leg is just about healed. I go see the wound specialist today, hopefully for the last time.

The infected left knee is healing up pretty good but there still seems to be an infection in the left ankle The pain plateaued. Some days are worse than others. Next week I go back in and they will extract some fluid out of the ankle joint to see if it's still has infection.

They did give me a big boot to start to walk with a walker. I walked around a bit yesterday but must have over did it. Oxycodone won't even touch it today. Just need to take it a bit slower. I have all winter. I just want out of this chair. It'll happen.
Thanks for asking.

Triumph Evolution

Yes, and no. I don’t care for 1990’s triumphs. Speed 3 and Legend excepted. There are some current lineup models I do like. But like any moto oem  made today they are more complicated and often bigger and heavier than I would like. They would require some massaging . Triumph graphics tend to suck. And all black motors boring . The price of new purchase and the needed changes to my my taste aren’t in my budgetary level.

Naw, It's one I've had for a couple years. Picked it up in Indiana. I call it Chomper. It has sickle bar teeth at the front end and a few other places. It's in my shed waiting for new brakes, clean up the added larger battery support welds and a good cleaning. I haven't had a chance to pull it out for a bit.

It's a 74 XLCH with the electric leg add. Sounds gnarly with its upswept double barrel exhaust.
I bought it because it's close to my old 73 XLCH that I chopped up and rode for 10 years. I sold and kicked myself it the day after. I'm glad this one has the e-leg. That old 73 was kick only and if it backfired it hurt.

I dig it!
