Ive been walking on my prosthetic leg since last November and I'm happy to report that I've learned how to ride a bicycle again! I didn't think it was possible with the type of knee Iuse but I did it! Now I just gotta figure out this whole "stopping" thing.

Congrats!!

Thank you! I never thought I'd ever be able to enjoy riding a bike again. I can't explain how much it means to me or how huge this is. I can't run or jog so this is my best shot at cardio and I missed it dearly. My puppy Roxy would pull me around the neighborhood and we'd both go flat out for as long as we could. She enjoyed Her Daddy flying right by Her side as much as I did. I'm thinking we'll be able to do that again someday.

Hello everyone. Its been a long time since I've written anything here other than what I'm sure will be perceived as typical quasi creepy picture comments with the best intentions. Its been a year actually. Ive had a lot to say and a lot of great stories don't get me wrong. I've just been far too busy to distract myself with all the beautiful models

I named this build Sloppy Surgeon because both the bike and I have undergone major surgery the past few months an were both hack jobs. I had my leg amputaed by a Grand Cherokee in October of 2012 and my last surgery which was a few weeks ago, left me with a sloppy stitch job on my leg. Inturn with my lack of attention to detail my newest build has been getting the same treatment. The scars on my body and the scars on my bikes are what tie us together.

So I finally figured out how to write posts. allow myself to introduce...myself. My name is Jackstand Johnny, Mr. Johnny if you're nasty. I ride and wrench motorcycles, streetfighters to be exact. I also enjoy writing wonderful songs that nobody will ever hear. What do I do for a living? Whatever I can now. Got my left leg ripped off as well as some other...

Hey Johnny, thanks for your comment on my blog. I am so very sorry to hear about the car crash and your resulting injuries. I can't even fathom how difficult of a loss that must have been for you. I really admire your sense of humor and positive attitude in dealing with it though! You are clearly an incredibly strong person, and that deserves praise! I feel like a bit of an idiot now having had a moan about my minor surgery. So I felt I had to thank you for showing me no matter what happens it's good to stay grounded and positive. <3 You should upload some of your music here! I'd love to hear it!! :) xxxx

Wow thank you so much for the kind words. You have no idea how good it makes me feel to hear something like that from someone such as yourself. Wasn't my intention at all to trivialize your situation. Our burdens as individuals are always relative to what were used to going through, and not what we think others might have had to deal with. Cky things are ducky things. You have yours and I have mine and neither one are worth more than the other. I'm smiling like an idiot right now reading that last bit about you saying I should pot my music up. I would most definitely love for you to hear it. Thank you again. I'm pretty sure this is the highlight of my day.
