Well, I got 106 degrees of bend today - ultimate goal is 120 degrees. But that last 14 degrees is where the joy rapidly fades away trying to achieve it!

Byron - "Frankin-Knee" - I likes it!

Mark - I wonder if when the time comes to replace the pads if they cut cross ways so you have a built in tic-tac-toe board ... ;-)

I'm not sure Uncle Phil, but it looks almost to me like those stitches spell out ST-1100? If I'm wrong, then maybe that's a worthy goal for the next one?

PAD REPLACEMENT?!?!?!:22yikes:

Best wishes for rapid healing and degree adding,

As I always say, some fellers have tattoos, real men have scars ... :D
LOL! Too funny! I have a scar down the front of my chest from open heart surgery when I was 3.5 years old. Some folks ask how I got it, I say it was a knife fight...If I can keep a straight face when I say that you should see the look on their faces... "REALLY? is he telling the truth or BSing us???" and that is a hilarious look as folks think it through!!! LOL!

Glad you are regaining your degrees, just remember to speak layman for the rest of us! ;)

John - I don't know at this point. Probably won't make the decision until Wednesday when I get ready to leave. I can get on the bike and get my feet on the pegs, but shifting gears is still really 'uncomfortable' at this stage. But I will be there via 2 or 4 wheels! ;-)

Nice shots UP and I'm glad Frost and Sweet Treat got out too!

Now be kind to that knee!

That's great Phil!, Glad to see you back on two wheels! :woo

Now, if I could only get my brother Dave to go have his other knee done, maybe, just maybe he would be more up to more riding then he's been doing! :eek:4:

Again, congrats on the ride! :hat3:

Glad to hear you're back UP! When I saw you driving your truck on 2 wheels at the BRG, I knew it would be soon. :D Nice get out of jail story!
