    I broke my collarbone in a minor crash back in November. Opioids made me feel terrible so I mostly only used them to sleep for the first week. Was off the bike for 14 weeks. I know it's not as long as you (really glad to see you back, by the way!) but I feeeeeeeeeel that.
    That first ride, that first little ride down the coast in the sun... It was beautiful. Truly, deeply beautiful.
    Glad you're back!

    That was an awesome ride! I am so glad that you made it through all of that and you are healing. You are truly blessed! I've never gotten back on a bike since my accident, but I remember how fun it was to ride. Just watching and hearing the joy in your voice while riding is so heartwarming. So glad you're back at it. Thanks for telling your story & thanks for the video. ❤🎉

      @sstressfl I do still play once in a while, but just for fun. That accident was when I was 15 and riding my dad's Honda 750...what a blast, but made me afraid of traffic (on a bike). You're doing it the right way, away from everyone out in the beautiful country. ♥️

      @@Vineyardedge Traffic is terrifying on a bike. I rode in college (Pensacola FL) to class and back for a couple years. I had no gear. I rode in shorts, t-shirt, helmet and a pair of vans! I stopped riding for 25 years! But I picked it up again for exactly the reason you mentioned. Beautiful, almost-no-traffic, rural roads! Best riding I've ever experienced.

That accident you had on the playground was a real eye opener and shows just how fast your life can be changed. My bff just tripped over her hose and broke her hip last week, so I am moving about carefully. Godspeed, Mike!

    I feel your pain I was in an accident a car turned in front of me from the right lane and it fractured mt c7 and c6,5,4 bulging. and I broke my right leg. I never took any pain meds. I found that a helmet support helped a lot riding I got a cheap . ProFox for 41.00 from Amazon. I had the heck brace from the hospital for 2 months 4/28 to 6/20 i got on my new v-strom 800 DE and I love it. you are close to where I lived25 years ago. Probably the best med i have been taking is Meloxicam I have a CDL and cant take things with bad side effects. I have had this for knee pain for about a year and it works great only you cant take any over the counter meds with it. ride on keep up the great attitude.

    A happy story like yours makes everyone happy. Heard about you on the RWP channel. I couldn't help but think of Jacob Marley of The Christmas Carol fame when you described tying your lower jaw to the top of your head. It is a long twisty road we navigate.

    DHMC?
    Traveling nurses are paid a lot more than staff nurses. That might be the source of some tension.
    Glad you are doing well.
    I spent 9 weeks, daily, in the radiation oncology waiting room during the same time you went through your experience. That was a real eye opener. I was doing fine, and still am. But, all those terribly sick people, some dying. Every day. Gives you perspective.
    You are riding in my neck of the woods. Nice to see the familiar roads and houses. Vermont is a beautiful place.
    Be careful with the speed around Woodstock. :)
