First guess: skiing?
- free-climbing?
- surfing?

I’ve done it. On a country road it’s lovely but doing that in city traffic is not. Unless you have a beautiful ride it is miserable. Traffic, rain, compromised baggage for both riding and work, fatigue from flying, no thanks. Nothing is enjoyable in NYC city traffic. Not even the backseat of an Escalade.

My last two dogs were named Thruxton and Bonneville.

I was on the fifth dog in a row named after bikes or tracks, when my wife brought home her dog, (doberman-something mutt) and said that "you can't call her Turbo or Yamaha or YZ" because she was looking at the bikes and then it dawned on her "You named Bonnie after your motorcycle?" "Not just her, Dilla, Enfield, Red and Thruxton too"

Turns out she was fast, and whined a lot. Turbo would have suited her.

Current dog named Roxyen (yellow ball of fluff that we got the night after one of my wife's favorite racers, Ken Roczen won the Indianapolis Supercross on a Suzuki which is yellow)

That's an idea for the next dog... wife doesn't even need to know

I had a buddy that rode his bike every week HOU-DFW rain or shine, summer and winter. It can be done. He was a native NY and the WX did not bother him.

JFC. not having 37 surgeries sounds like more fun to me. Spend a year hobbling at 1mph just to avoid having my achilles disconnected again. Better than another 3 months on the iWalk. YDY!

Some people believe the earth is flat.
Some people believe helicopters should fly.

Yeah I was like 37???

Then... Oh, helicopter. My buddies Dad was the same after helos in 'Nam.

Too many Jesus Bolts.

Mine was also a lot of revisionary surgeries for botched surgeries.

One was my right knee 4x because first time they left a tool in there. Second surgery to remove left behind tool and repair damage caused by PT forcing knee into a metal part. Third surgery because I was rejecting cadaver parts that were improperly prepared on second surgery.

Best part, knee didn't actually need that surgery urgently but "surgical residents needed practice and you weren't expected to live"

If it was any hospital other than DoD, I would own the hospital and never have to work again.

Now multiply that by 3 other major injuries.

Positive side, surgeon who fixed my right leg is an artist. I don't even limp. Butchers at Bethesda abd Walter Reed ****ed it up 3x and wanted to amputate. Doc Z is a miracle worker.

The surgeon who reconstructed my face did such a good job you can't tell I didn't really have a left side of face anymore. Only my mother knows the difference, because my high cheekbones were trimmed down a bit and he did plastic surgery on the other side so I match left to right.

of course only 70%VA because my sleep apnea is yotally unrelated to "you want normal looking face pr normsl-ish sinuses. You get one or the other"
