Why is it that the first thing that comes out of every famliy member, co-worker and general friend's mouth when I return from DW is .......

No broken bones?



Do they really think we go out and ride expecting to break bones?

For me it is, "What the #@*% happened to your arms?!?"

Ask 'em what they did on their weekend. They say something like mowed the lawn or repaired the cabinets. I ask 'em "What?! You didn't cut off your toe or smash your thumb?"

Most non-riders just have no concept.

You're right Randy...they have no clue.

At least two people back at work have said to me "Glad to see you're still walking on both legs..."

You could always tell them you were attacked by a "delicate flower" (maybe a pansy?).
