Hand surgery was yesterday ( Wed 12-27 ) It went very well. Now wait for swelling to go down ( using ice ) & two weeks from now stitches removed. Not any more pain now than before the surgery & hoping that'll go away as it heals. I can also move ALL my fingers. It may not take as long to recover as originally thought :) Thank you to all of you for your well wishes and support
Merry Christmas to you and your family! I hope the surgery goes well and you’re back on the bike soon, I look forward to your lane splitting videos every Friday, I guess I’ll dig into the archives for a while. See you in February.
Thank you & Merry Christmas to you & your family. I expect the surgery & recovery to go well & will be back riding about Feb Good idea lots of videos in the archives to watch
Well they say that surgery in the winter is better than in the dog days of summer. That thing that did the U- turn in front of you, looks like something I once saw on Lost in Space. Better steer clear of that one. LOL.. Good luck with the surgery and Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Years too RR. See ya next year.
I hate getting surgery in Summer and wasting all that time of beautiful weather but it seems I've had to have a surgery every year for the last 10 years to fix something. I still need both knee joints replaced that I've been putting off because of all the down time it'll take to recover, just had them temporarily repaired instead. Getting old sucks big time! Merry Christmas to you & see you in 2018
I hope you had an excellent Christmas Robb. Best of luck with the surgery. I hope this turns things around for you and that the New Year sees you reaping the benefits and finding things a lot easier. If you’re not too keen on surgery then you could always try the Santa Chocolates and cookies cure. I hear they work a treat. ;-) Take care and best wishes, we will be thinking of you.
yes thank you Christmas was nice Surgery on my hand is tomorrow & it should go well. I still need both knee joints replaced some time in the future but it takes long to recover from that so I've been putting it off The chocolate Santa & cookie cure sounds better for sure Thanks again
Robb, Great vlog my friend! Weather here has been terrible. I have been trying to do a vlog but this darn weather bro! I pray that your surgery goes well and you are back on the 72 soon but do not rush yourself. Take care.
Thank you Yea I've seen the news for the weather back there not good. Surgery went well just as expected & recovery may be faster than I originally thought
Good luck with the surgery, man. I wish you all of the best. Let us know how everything goes. Good to see that you are doing well. Merry Christmas and have a wonderful New Year my friend. Take care. Hope all is well!
Merry Christmas to you & yours as well Cheap gloves of Amazon I wouldn't buy them again they'll only last 2 seasons probably but they do keep my hands warm
Robb I do enjoy your videos. But I have to say lane splitting should be outlawed everywhere. It looks really dangerous. Plus I feel safer waiting my turn in all that traffic. Be safe out there and good luck with your hand. Have a Happy Holiday Season.
Well many would disagree with you about outlawing lane splitting / filtering, me included. It's done legally & safely all around the world. The key words are legally & safely. Not some fool flying 100 mph down the freeway pulling stunts & then running from the cops for you tube views in a state that doesn't allow it. Many riders are rear ended by cars while waiting in line because of inattention & studies prove it's safer for motorcyclist to move to the front of the line of cars. Riding a motorcycle can be dangerous because people don't see us & that's why I always ride defensively to avoid idiots running red lights & turning in front of me or pulling out without looking. More riders are hit by those 3 actions than those lane splitting. Most lane splitting accidents are the motorcyclist fault for speeding. If you don't want to do it that's fine I respect your choice. Thanks & have a Merry Christmas
I never thought of the rear-ending. Thanks for pointing that out. And it seems like where you live people are kinder to motorcycles then some other areas. I think if I tried this in Pittsburgh someone would open their door and try to knock me off the bike. Thanks for the pointers Robb. Ride Safe. Merry Christmas.
there've been several studies done about this. Even if you never lane split to the front, I'd sit to one side of the car in front of you so if you do get hit in the rear. You'll have less of a chance of being squished between two vehicles & may be able to move forward and avoid the hit from the rear. Way back in the 70's & 80's I had people who would open doors or throw drinks out the window but mostly out of staters who didn't know Calif allows it. With all the PSA & media coverage here to promote motorcycle safety that rarely happens and mostly in larger cities where people are generally more of an a hole driving. Hope you had a Merry Christmas I did I'm off to the hospital for surgery in an hour. "ride safe & be aware"
