My bp is getting there, but I'm still too rigid. I really need to work on weight loss and flexibility... at age 56/57 it's tough to do. Still carrying around about 15 extra pounds that I'm having a hell of a time getting rid of.
What I really need to work on most, though, is figuring out what that funny rotating thing on the right clip-on is for. I have a deep-seated fear of high-siding and am way too timid with the throttle.

Highsiding isn't all that bad.
