CONGRATS!

That said, you might want to take your 1000 to some local Indian reservation, get a shaman to bless it or something. Three close calls with death on a single bike is nothing to sneer at.

Yeah, I know, I'm superstitious, but ya never know...

Heehee :) Just lettin' ya know that I know bikin' is on the risky side of life, and I ride accordingly.
There's a classic bike shop nearby that ran a nice group ride last year. About 50 nice classic bikes, of all brands They're suppose to do it again. I'll probably post it here, when/if it happens, again.
BTW I'll be the sum of both your ages, in April.:S :blink::woohoo: B)
