The Gastroc Lives

Thanks everyone for the emails and phone calls, in a crazy twisted way it was a great birthday present to hear from all of you. I'm about 80% and will be back on my bike this weekend for a couple easy rides around Chicago. This little incident has really made me appreciate a couple things, the people I ride with and the ability to get around. It is easy to take both of these things for granted so once in awhile it's good to get a little reminder of how important they both are, although I could have done with a little more gentle reminder than this, it's still good none the less.
