I have been riding about 7 months. I lost my little brother (n law) in a bike wreck in October, and I now drive his old bike in memory of him. I loved to ride before he passed away, but hadn't been on a bike for about 6 years. We talked about as soon as he got a new bike, I could have his old one and we could ride together, but when he got his new bike, he had a very bad accident and didn't make it. My husband starting riding after that too, but he is in Texas going to school for the next year, so I haven't really had anyone to ride with.

My husband rides every day, every moment he can, especially to and from work. I only ride on the weekends, if I'm not too busy (like I was this month.) I had major back surgery 5 mos ago, and for the most part I'm okay, but I have my good days and bad days!

What was the surgery for? I literally broke my neck when I was 10, also broke 3 ribs and 1 of the ribs punctured a lung all at the same time... Sucks

WTH? What did you do at such a young age to have that kind of injuries??
I had a lumbar discectomy and a...foraminotomy??? LMAO I think that's the word. Okay I had back surgery in 2005 for 2 ruptured discs in my lumbar region and so this was another surgery for the same thing, just to clean it up, along with cleaning up the scar tissue, and they cut a little hole in my vertebrae again to relieve pressure on the nerve -- which still bugs me

It was just one bad decision. He was passing a car and there was something next to the curb. His tire nailed it. He was going pretty fast. He was just doing it because he was messing with the girls in front of him. He was a very experienced rider. We are all finally starting to cope with it a little better. Some of the family aren't happy that we ride still, but it's something that we love to do, and that Jake loved to do.

Charlies is one of my favorites on the Landing for a quick bite. It seems to be one of the places I must be wheel barrow-ed out of, but I highly recommend it!
One of my favorite spots to hit for quick good sandwiches is Panera Bread. I think my two minute commute from home is a contributor to that, though! :rollseyes:

Well, as long as someone is good with directions/has a gps then that route sounds like a blast. Perfect amount of time too.

Aww, I can't believe I just ran across this thread. This weekend is one of the few I'm not free on a Saturday. I live up in Rolla, so hopefully I can get in on the next Missouri group ride nearby.

Hopefully we can make this more of a common thing but if not there is a bike rally over by st.Roberts in September hosted by the freedom of road riders that I'll be going to its more of a cruiser event but they welcome all bikes. Its the last thing me and my grandpa did before he died so I'm planning on going every year

Late to the party, but from one Missouri rider to another, welcome to the forum. Been to Branson many a time just never with my bike. I couldn't ride that far on mine, but wish I could, there's some great roads down there.

Where's the group at? And we're meeting at (as I understand) 3pm on saturday the 21st at Charlie's Subs on the Branson Landing. If you don't know where charlies is, then enter from the Bass Pro side, walk down a ways it'll be on your left. If i'm not mistaken it has a green awning. But that may have been taken with the tornado lol.
