| Ok, so the weather last week was in the 40's, but I was working too much & didn't get out. I did see about 3 guys on scoots & now we have a storm thats supposed to drop about 6 inches of snow on us. Anybody else ready for this white diahrrea to be over with ??  |

| It's been a pretty warm winter with lots of good riding weather.....up until a month ago. Unfortunately I cut my left arm with a chainsaw. Cut all the tendons/muscles/ligaments. Had all those nice days to ride and I didn't have the hand strength to pull in my clutch!! DSC01345.jpg |

| OUCH! Talk about pain and such. Hope you're gonna be Ok. And, YES, I am so done with the snow. Not that we get much at all but it's the ice, slush, frozen crap that I'm tired of. I've had it! Where the hell is spring! |

| well that puts things in perspective, i have been bitc%in about having to ride my scoot for the last 2 months. it could be worse, it could be snowing down here, or i could be hurt and not even be able to ride at all.the weather has been decent down here,may even hit 75 today..........
i cut my left wrist with a peice of aluminum flashing all the way to the bone,very simaler to the pic i saw, dont rush it. i did and it was not worth it!!!!! i would wrap it really tight , take a couple pain pills and go riding anyway, the next day is when you pay the price, though the pain pills out they dont work........
take some good advice from a very hard headed man, let it heal then go play!!!!
o ya, gonna send some of this sunshine up north!!!!!

Attachment 282 | WOW that looks nasty!Makes me feel bad about whining about the snow and cold hasn't been above 40 here since early Nov.I hope your hand/arm heals 100% You might think about a hydraulic clutch ,a buddy of mine has one on his soft tail takes no pressure at all to pull in the lever . The only thing is there is really no feeling to the clutch. I stalled the bike leaving his driveway and yes he still likes to remind me of that  |

| I am! Don't bother yourself to much. It's just the weather.
