I remeber the first time I read a post of someones decision to stop riding. I though they were crazy.. Whatever the reason was, death of friend, family member, etc..or a new birth (son, or daughter on the way, etc....) I always thought " I would NEVER stop riding, because of these things"...Well I was Wrong..
On tuesday july 26th, I recieved a call from my mother.. My stepfather was in a very bad motorcycle accident.. the doctors said he wasnt going to make it. Walking into the trauma unit room was very hard for me to do, he didnt even look like himself.. The minute I stepped into the room and saw him, I realized I need to sell my bike..I would NEVER want my family and friends to feel the way I did this morning.. Seeing him lay there with the tubes and machines hooked-up to him hit me hard...
We had to make the hardest decicion of our lives...We took my stepfather off of life support on wednesday the 27th @ 1:50 pm..I held his hand as he passed....I dont think I have ever been so sad in my life..
I hope in the future I can ride again. For now, I cant,..I have too much going on to chance it..
