return to kiting
well after 5 months and ~$15,000 i've been released from Physical Therapy and the docs agree that the achilles / leg are good to go!
looking foreward to getting back to kiting pretty much asap although i'll be quite rusty and apprehensive for a bit....

try that with my 1/5th scale Castle conversion that does wheelies.

that was the hardest time of my life.... isolation, pain, depression, anger, feeling useless, rehab, insurance wars, etc. i have new and deep
compassion for those hurting and how just spending time with them is the best thing you can do to help.
thanks everyone, i'll write a little something after the first session .
