Quitting voluntarily

[the Ferret]

I had forgotten all about this thread and there's an update. Jim and I of course stayed in touch and I was always sending him riding updates and pictures and stuff, AND he lurked here a bit. In the meantime, Jim bought a drag race car. He loved cars and drag racing in particular. He raced the car a few times and decided he missed motorcycle riding. The race car was fun one day a week. He could ride a motorcycle every day. At first his wife was against Jim riding again, but eventually she saw how much it meant to him and acquiesced. He sold the race car and about a month ago Jim picked up a used FJR. Been riding it about every day. We went riding the other day. he seemed happy again.

Here's Jim with his new to him FJR (and the flo yellow jacket he had given me when he gave up riding. I was saving it for his return and finally got to give it back...washed, but never worn by me) at one of our meeting places...his favorite restaurant... Sonic, in Nelsonville, Ohio lol

and some pics I took of him happily motoring along on St Rt 78 near Burr Oak State Park in SE Ohio. We had a great day of riding that day. A little over 450 miles for me.
