So an initial review of how the firearm actually worked was needed, and I decided to put a spin on the entire thing. I would take myself, a not amazingly accurate but at least semi-knowledgable shooter (a reasonable equivelant for many) …
The bikes runs and lives and is all put back together! It even looks nice! There's a few small things to sort out remaining, but for the most part this bike will get me on the road again and moving around. Throw some new tires on it, fix…

The timing was really perfect. I had just broken my femur riding Motocross, my last time on a sport bike at a race trick I'd been clobbered and re-broken my colarbone requiring yet another surgery to attach it all together... and my last…
