Since the beginning of the year, I’ve lost about 50 pounds. Cancer is one hell of a weight loss program.
As part of that weight loss, I’ve lost some strength in my legs as well. So, when it came to riding my ~740 pound motorcycle, I decided that it wasn’t a good idea. If I couldn’t support it properly at a stop sign, then I’d drop it. If I dropped it, I’m not sure if I can pick it up.
So, I decided to sell the bike and get a convertible. Growing up, I’d always been a bit jealous of one of my friend’s Honda Del Sol that I’d occasionally get rides in.
I ended up finding a 2005 BMW Z4 with only 60,000 miles for just under $10,000, which seemed like a pretty good deal.
I got a few rides in over last weekend. Looking forward to being back home soon and getting more rides.
