Aster1 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Leaving this Sunday but no room for any guitars for the campfire dang it!! My adult son & I will be off on an Autumn road trip with the Harley's. First trip I've been on since the Cardiac virus hit me in Feb 2011. A little skeert on how the bod will hold up for 12 days riding & camping. Most of my strength is back & it should be good weather. About 2000 miles round trip. Taking the decked out for touring Sportster for him & the Road King Classic for me. Biggest obstacle may be being able to EAT FOOD on the road with my food allergies & restrictions. Better take my backpack stove & pots/pans so I can cook some rice (blaaaa) meals or something in a jam. Back the end of 1st week October before all the leaf lookers descend on the place. I'm wanting to take the Blueridge Scenic Parkway ride from Cherokee to where ever & back. Not hankering for a hot rod ride on the "Tail of the Dragon" down that way however. Maybe when I was a young'n but got that Dare-deviling out of my system years ago. Keep things together here and no big blow-up with folks getting kicked out and stuff-n-stuff!!! It get's deleted too fast and if I ain't here to read the remarks they are gone and then it's just getting in trouble axing what happened to someone.

Aster1 Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 Cardiac virus? Any medication? Have a great time, I'm stuck in an office and very envious. Only Ibuprofen for inflammation is about all they can do for you. If you live thru it, I have 2x now 10yrs apart & not wanting a 3x with it either. From what I found out any virus can settle in most any place in your body. Like a cold or flu that settles in muscles. Didn't catch it totally as a cold or flu, felt the symptom for about a day then when away. Settled into my heart and in about 2 weeks I couldn't walk up 5 steps w/o huffing/puffing. It did damage this time to my heart valve so I run out of mojo quickly. Can't do things that are really strenuous and keep that pace for long for me, but I can still keep up with most people my age anyway. Not the youn'n like I could before last year. Thanks for the send off. Got new tires on the Sportster & the Road King's ready to go too. May try to get to Nashville for a tour of the Factory if possible. Missed the Montana tour when I was close this summer as it wasn't on but one day/week. Aster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
