I once went 20 years without riding.

It almost killed me!

I always thought that was a bit of a dodgy concept ... For example - if you slipped off a railway platform and were hit by a train which lopped off your legs, and then the ambulance taking you to hospital crashed causing you a serious brain injury, and then in hospital they gave you a transfusion of the wrong type of blood which damaged your kidneys, but the doctors somehow stopped you dying ... how strong do you think you'd feel then!

(I do agree that overcoming adversity can increase one's mental fortitude. I've had a difficult time over the years but still manage to get on with most of the challenges that I set myself.)

Problem is, every time you try, you make it stronger.

Bad luck! My good Lady still isn't well, I have a house full of family, both sons and granddaughter here all ready, stepdaughter and stepson due later, I've no chance of a ride today. However if my Good lady has a good day tomorrow i might be able to sneak a ride in.

And because its shocking weather this weekend Mrs CK is up at 8 am , go figure .
