    I honestly cannot thank everyone enough for all the help, concern, and everything else offered throughout the weekend.

    I feel like a bit of a heel for staying in the room for as long as I did on Friday and some of Saturday evening. After the adrenaline finally wore off, I felt like crap and I think I was in shock or something for a while.

    However, after pizza on Saturday night, you guys had me laughing so hard I was in tears and I finally felt normal again.

    Again, thanks for everything.

          Glad you two are ok. Bikes can be fixed/replaced. People can't.

              Sorry to hear about your mishap. Glad you're both relatively OK.
              Remember the post with the pic I sent you a short while after buying your "Essie" off me a few years back? The one comparing it to Christine(remember that old Stephen King movie?)! Kidding aside, don't let her (it? the bike...) become that, you hear me?

                strange how much something like that helps, isn't it?

                glad to hear you guys are OK.

                there are ten billion what ifs.. only one what is. sweating the what ifs doesn't help the past much.

                    I wont Steve.. I love that bike, but its just a bike. It can be repaired.. My main concern at the time, after and still is that Rose was and IS ok. Both physically and mentally. That she would climb back on the bike with me had me a bit amazed, and humbled. She must really trust and love this guy

                      Maybe I'm just a crazy person.

                          Here's a test:
                          You and Josh start making out on the bike and see if she (it?...the bike!)
                          starts itself up and wheelies dumping you both off. If it does, then push it out in your front yard with a for sale sign (cheap...maybe around $300, just like in the movie) and get rid of it before it does you (Rose) in!!!

                              Ha!

                              I'm not scared of Essie, or any other bike for that matter...
                              She just needs to smacked around a little to show her who's in charge.

                                Wow! Glad the two of you are okay. I'm sure Essie will be rehabbed soon and thankfully maybe not much rehab is needed for the two of you.
