DT "say anything" thread

Annapolis is fine for the area, but I like moving.

I used to enjoy moving, but it’s gotten old now. I almost wish I hadn’t have packed up again over the summer.

I think the almost indicates that you don't regret the move, so that's something. Any idea how long you'll be in that area?

[ducpainter]

I'll jump in.

I hate moving. I've lived in the same spot for the last 30+ years.

I'll die here.

Don't get me wrong; I'm happy to be back in the UK. This move has caused too much upheaval in all aspects of life though, and I'm not enjoying that aspect.

Wow. I've been in this house for over 6 years, making it the longest I have ever lived in one spot. Probably be here for another 2 at least.

I do see some of the benefits - getting to know the town and the people around here. We  enjoy being friendly with servers and business owners. But the wanderlust, it is strong.

OK, 7 weeks ago the pain started & 5 weeks ago, on a Sunday, it got so bad that I couldn't finish a project on the supermoto. I could barely park the bike in its spot in the garage. Today I finished the project but ran out of time to go ride. Weather permitting and God willing I aim to get a ride next weekend.  I could swing a leg over the seat & get on / off the thing.  I'm ready no matter what the doc says.

Glad you’re on the mend Rick, and feeling much better. Go easy though; make sure you don’t jump in too quickly and tweak that back again.

Roger that! However the thing about the back is just to heal the wound from the surgery done to remove the bad boy synovial cyst that was jamming into the spinal cord at L4-L5. Apart from the standard wear & tear of disc degeneration by virtue of age there was nothing, per se, wrong with the back.  That said, yes, I'll start a exercise old age management program to protect what's still there.

Got my two laps over Tantalus today pn the SM.  Had to get used to everything after being off for so long.  The bike is the beans over that hill but had to fight the headwind going back over the Pali.  KTM is no fight, just blast through.  One of these days I'll do a back to back with the two.  Feeling a little stiff right now.

I did my back to back this morning while dodging rain showers. Limited rides but still. The Husky isn't slow but it's not going to win any drag races. The KTM is a full on hot rod out of control beast that is just civilized enough to be on the road. It just doesn't like anything slow, in sport mode anyway. Both handle very well but just differently.  Both on the borderline of being obnoxiously loud.  Hmmmmm................
