Not so much gladiator, as pugilistic dummy... My injuries are part of my story and I hear I'm inspirational far more often than I'm truly comfortable with. Now the offer to use a noble steed of speed, is quite generous. But I doubt we are close enough to make good on that... Bummer. I am collecting bike parts and frames, to build one of the Atomic Zombie trikes.

I get the sense that like military veterans we too are reliving unforgettable traumas, and are proud of our sucesses.
As a veteran, never in combat though, I'm just used to living with my pains and aches. Some just make me feel old before my time, then, there are the ones I've done to myself...

I agree, knowing they are resting, maybe upset at at me, mocking me at times... Just bothers me. Except fr the one I crashed on. That one has been enslaved to life of bondage on the indoor trainer...
