So the Cooler air begins!

So the cooler air begins!

Next week starts the kick off to "BIKETOBERFEST", and yes we plan on trying to make it out this year, but nothing is put in stone as of yet due to the fact that my legs are going nuts again, with the one day I can feel them, and the next day not so much. So, riding that far out from Clermont right now may be just a little tricky. One can never tell the kinda ride ones in for when you have major cramping going down both your legs. Enough to make it feel like someones trying to peel your legs like banana's ripping their fingers into you down to the bone at the top of your thighs, and then ripping them downward to the ground, now those are leg cramps for ya folk's, those are the kind that hurt so bad, that the whole experiance leaves bruising behind, nice right? Well welcome to my world.
I swear if another person tells me to eat more potassium I'm gonna burst, you see the problem is not a chemical deficiency, but yet a major lump of scar tissue that reformed after my back surgery in 2004, which is now pressing on both S1 & S2 nerve branches going down both my legs, at times that scar tissue inflames and really gets at chocking off those nerves which you guessed it, kills my ability to use my legs all at once, so ya, riding a motorcycle can get a little tricky when this occurs, but I usually feel the cramping coming on, and I'm able to pull over fast enough to get them to behave and on with the ride I go. Unless it's a real bad day where I can not even move, and I've got plenty of those under my belt already. "BACK PROBLEMS" is something I wouldn't even wish on my enemies , as this is one heck of a thing to deal with.
As for the cooler air, that too brings on a realm of other problems plaguing us with back issues, as the cold or cooler air effects how you do things as well, so many factors to consider when you have one and only one thing on your mind, living life, but it's made so difficult by the persistent problems of "BACK PAIN".

Make it a Great Day Folk's!
