Eat, breathe and move.

How you do those can make a difference in the results.

MM , Lancer said a mouthful eat good , keep moving don’t have to run miles I prefer to walk and enjoy the world just stay busy. I won’t be swinging a leg over anything for awhile so I’m walking. Gettin good sleep about 6 or 7 hours does me fine. But I sure would love to ride my mountain bike instead of walking. Dog walking is great , they pee and run to the next pee spot so this gets heart rate up don’t start walking till heart rate comes down to normal then go , heart rate up then rest then go again, total exercise for the ticker. And no gym membership needed.

Last night I had a dream that I was riding an unfamiliar "cruiser" style motorcycle on a curvy downhill mountain road....OK so far.

While I was trying to get used to the bike and how to corner with my feet on forward controls and my arms up in the air.....another motorcycle rider came right up on my back tire.......just off to the right side.  When I turned around to see who it was - the rider and motorcycle looked just like one of those shiny green plastic Army men we used to play with when we were kids.....except that instead of green the color was a dull orange.

It took a minute for me to realize - that it was Ruttly hot on my tail! Grin

One more thing that is more important the older you get. So important that injuries abound when you forget it. Pulled muscles , tear injuries , falls , your balance. It affects your body all over. Drink water , if you don’t like water , flavor it  and drink it anyways , stay hydrated all the time. Most think that during warmer weather , but it’s during cold months when I forget to drink water , warmer weather it’s easy to stay hydrated. When body is dehydrated bad things happen , you are weak and compromised, easier to injure yourself. So I like Gatorade or water at a arms reach especially during  winter.

Update- 1 week with the 2 wheeled walker, 9 days and I drove my stick shift p/u. 2 weeks with a cane and now just my 2 legs! I hobble some and basicly have to learn how to walk again.
My mom told me I was walking at 16 months, hope it is quicker this time.
I am aiming for April 1st to get back on Thumper.
Moral- Don't put off hip surgery, they are doing great things now.

I feel so Blessed ,  My hips are working just fine !   Smiley

.............

The rest of the stuff is in need of "Tuning - up" ,  Roll Eyes

I got a gym membership last fall and have been working on a few places that  were   are in 'NEED" !      

All those Mt.Dew's have been replaced with fruit juice or water .  (Getting Older sure requires work ! )

..............

I have slowly been digesting the idea of trading the Guzzi for a Super Meteor
Dave if the one in your dream was "Red and White" then how did it handle ?

Seriously  ... I need to go at least sit on one of them when they get to the USA this summer.  
They look good !

MM , You gave it away when told us the delivery date   LOL

You did good it’s almost March.  LOL

How can I be the only one ?    I'd think everyone of us has  at least one bike we want to "Ride for a summer --- or two "  Grin

I'd rather have a single throttle body over the twin throttle bodies , so I might just keep the Guzzi with its single TB .   Undecided
But
Throttle bodies are ... trouble free ... for the most part , I think ???  
So , how can the RE twin be so much more fuel thrifty is beyond me .
The RE even weigh's more , they both have the same HP ,

How about you other fellers , where would you like to park you hips for a year or two ?

Translation: looks right , feels right , test ride might seal the deal     Grin

Me , lm waiting to see a BSA , but would like to sit on a few RE s for sure but aint buying anything yet. There are more retro/standard bikes than before , I like the trend , more options.

If your talking about new bikes the you'd have to get a Honda Trail 125 to even get a kick start .    
Or
Some of the China bikes still have both also.

Its great that at least two different company's are making a mid-size classic machine for about $7k .      Both of them with "Happy Buttons" !   Smiley

Yup Dr said absolutely no kick starting motorcycles anymore. Told me to reward myself , get a bike with a happy button. So I tried to get him to write me a prescription for a new motorcycle, so I could show my loving wife. But he didn’t want to play along , something about liability. Boy , I could have walked into that argument full of confidence , with a prescription in hand !  Grin

I know I own a sportster but I’m not a twin guy. Me likem thumpers. So I’ll wait to see the BSA before I buy something else. Just like girls , can’t stop me from lookin!  Shocked
