I Tried But I'm Forced To Sell My Ride

#1 Unread post by mswarrior »

Hi all, it has been quite some time since my last post. Some of you might remember me from last year. My Multiple Sclerosis has gotten to a point where I can't ride much, and when I do..... well I scared myself :shock: . I wanted to thank all of you for the help in the past when I had a question or problem with my bike. I have the bike going into the Auto Trader next week :( and it's also posted in the for sale section on this site "thanks mike" . I wish you all the best and keep riding for as long as you can.

Sincerly,

John Savignac

Damn.....My heart goes out too you!
I was down for 3wks. I don't know what I would do if I couldn't Ride anymore????
Yes I do, I'd carry on and "play the cards delt"...
That's all any of us can do. Don't forget Life is nothing but a test!
It's easy to give up.... it takes Balls to "Carry On"!

Here's knowing that a Fellow Rider has Balls!!!!!

some folks i know are putting together a poker run on canada day here in calgary in support of MS. I know Bow Island is a fair distance away but i'm sure they'd love to have you come out if you found yourself in Cowtown that day.

That's horrible, I hope you find something even better to ocupy your time.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.
