You always seem to have a special way of telling it like it is. I dropped my bike almost two years ago, and I don't think my shoulder will ever be the same. I am a whole lot more careful now than I was back then. No more riding tired and/or hungover. Yeah, like loud motors and headaches are a good combination right?
Cobra, hope your future bro-in-law is doing well. Will keep him in my prayers. Try to get people to keep the "I told you so's" to a minimum. I've said it before, it isn't a matter of IF you crash, but WHEN you crash riding bikes. Encourage him to take the Bike Saftey course that Nebraska offers. You should be able to find out information about it through the following link:

Let us know how he is doing, and take care man.
