18 Ride into the sunset

2 November2016

We met the oncologist today and he was quite encouraging about quick recovery from the radiation because I was not getting chemotherapy. It's not actual recovery though but a good temporary fix to keep me going so I can enjoy my new bike next year. I'm still on a liquid diet and the lung infection will be reviewed next Monday when I have my last radiation visit. The steroids should be helping the throat swelling so tomorrow I might be able to enjoy the luxury of mashed potatoes and gravy or even some heavenly scrambled eggs!

OK, back to bike.


This afternoon I headed to the dealership and put a lay away downpayment on a one year old demonstrator bike that the owner had been riding. It only has 4,000km and was the red  colour I wanted. I  now have a very special reason to get in good shape for the Spring. It is a Sport-Touring bike with a comfortable upright riding position but faster than my previous one. It's a Yamaha FJ-09.
