Going Crazy time for AC/DC and a cold one

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAW I thought the doc was going to remove my foot cast. Yes he removed it then said two more weeks then we will see and put a new cast back on Talk about atrophy of my leg! I basically had 3 operations in one so I’m getting a good deal I need to get off my behind and go outside crank up some AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and then some Slayer. Enjoy a few cold ones I have in the outside fridge stare at my bikes that I know have a greater appreciation for. Everybody have a great weekend and get in some epic rides

Crap. When you do get the "go ahead" don't overdo it. In the meantime have a beer for me, and call it carb-loading.

Here's a mind-blowing AC/DC cover worth going crazy over:


No alcoholic buzz required

A few weeks ago my wife and I saw Justin Hayward, he has a guitar player in the group, Mike Dawes. Dawes is an excellent example of the finger style players.

Hondo you and I need to crank up the speakers and open a few beers together. I hope you’d be okay with some Allman Brothers and CSN&Y.. ...or even the soundtrack from Woodstock???

I feel your pain. I’ve figured out I have a lot of hobbies but most of them involve physical activities so right now I’m hobbieles....We had lot of rain for 4-5 days and it just added to the restlessness.

This must be an old joke in cycling, but still a good thing to keep in mind during recovery:

What, you can't ride with a cast? When I had my triple arthrodesis back in '73 my brother shamed me into riding my bike as soon as the walking cast dried. I fell over of course. Doctor kindly suggested that I stop riding.
