I just let them think I'm crazy. Especially after dumping my first 250R last June, the "organ donor" comments doubled in freaquency. The fact that I replaced the bike and started riding again as soon as I was able took a lot of the wind out of their sails. Now they only half-heartedly say I'm nuts to ride a bike. I think it's because they now realize that there must be something really special about riding a motorcycle if a person is willing to risk injury to experience it, even after an accident. They don't know what to make of that kind of commitment, so I just keep my mouth shut and let them mull it over in their own minds.
