Bob, first let me welcome you to the forum. Congratulations on the new bike. As a relatively new rider myself, I can attest to the feelings you get when you get on and twist the throttle. I tell everyone (including my doctor) that I really feel 10 years younger since I started to ride. I am 54 and wish I had started 25 years ago! Best wishes for a continuing recovery from your illness. I also would like to say that there is no cure for the smiles you'll be wearing from now on.
