Yeah I really suck at tennis. I suck harder at basketball. I'm preposterously bad at soccer.

Turns out one of the things childhood abuse does is fuck with your motor development. It was a massive load-off to read that because it's always been my fault that I suck. Combine that with post-COVID impacts on balance and shit and I've been real hesitant to get back on the motorcycle. I can tell it fucked with me every time I ride a bike.

Yeah, don’t fuck with what your body is telling you… especially on a motorcycle. Sorry dude. Stationary bike? Rowing machine? I did the rowing machine. Works a ton of muscles and is great conditioning.

I owned a Concept 2 Model C. And I did 15,000 miles on a bicycle in LA; it's now up here.

I've got shit figured out. I'm just never gonna be Bjorn Borg.
