| Two weeks in the shop |
It's time to get my VROD back. They've held it hostage long enough.... It figures the shop wouldn't carry the parts needed for repairs and have to special order them.
I don't mind riding 2 up with Paul. The part I do mind is the feeling that my helmet is going to fly apart from him going so fast my whole body shudders, my flesh feels like it's coming off and getting my backside soaking wet because someone didn't pack the rain gear in his backpack like he suggested.
I was so numb last night I could barely move. My pants were so wet I felt like a little kid with wet pants (you know when you see those kids walking with their legs spread out?). I had to peel my layers off. I put on dry stuff and for one second I could feel the warmth of the fabric on my skin. Then, all of a sudden, that fabric felt like ice. I touched it and it was ice cold too. I was frozen to the core. Thank GOD for heated seats in my car. We had to go to the store after getting back from our ride. My backside was still cold this morning. OH... and since I was passenger I had the pleasure of carrying the backpack.... I'm going to be taking lots of ibuprofen today!!
So, I can't say I do not ride in the rain!!! Just not regularly. I refuse to ride in the rain on purpose. That's my husband's department. He told me his hands were so cold he could barely function. I just asked him to get us home safely. Of course he did! Thank the Good LORD God.
P.S. I post this under humor because looking back on the situation now it reads funny.
