    Steve and I took his bike to him last Sunday after he got home from the hospital. He is able to move and walk around though obviously not super far right now or super long and is in great spirits. Standing, sitting, and laying down also requires very deliberate and slow effort.

    All in all, he's in very good spirits and working through the next steps
    Good spirits eh? All the insurance and paperwork flying around. I saw the form for the initial diagnosis in Jasper. They had checked the box marked dizzy/giddy. Apparently, they hadn't met me before. Brian and Robin had come to check on me, and we were just having a normal (for us) conversation. Except for the fact I was laying in bed. I could still feel and wiggle my toes, and I think by then I had already learned to pee into the bottle, so there was no immediate cause for concern. I didn't know yet what hospital-grade painkillers do to the digestive tract. Wanna hear a story?

          I've used the tongue jack on my trailer to break the bead, of course the trailer was on the hitch at the time. I usually have some wood blocking to set the tire on. Just one idea if you're in the campground or pits.
