Let me begin by saying that I’m fine. The only reason I got an MRI was to rule out things my doctor was already pretty sure I didn’t have. My results came back completely clear.

Ride Log: Home Safe
August 4, 2009 — Tonight a Jeep Cherokee pulled an oblivious left turn right in front of me. Thankfully I was still far enough away that he only managed to pull out in front of me. Had I been a few yards further along, he might have hit me instead. It was still close though. – Read More –
I want a collection
