I am insane.
Four weeks ago, I dropped my homebuilt electric motorcycle on my left ankle. I did it EXACTLY wrong, with the frame lining up perfectly with the end of my fibula, fracturing the fibula, another foot bone, and crushing my entire ankle.
Of course this is now Earth Weekend.
I got a Brammo on loan to me. I rode it to an Earth Day event 12 miles away, talked to folks all day, recharged it while there (from solar!) and rode home. On the way back, one road was entirely closed due to a traffic accident, so I had to take a different (and longer) route.
It was a blast, and when finally back, all I could think of is that I FINALLY BEAT the fuel economy of what my wife can get in that Plug-In Prius!!!!
Having too much fun to stop.
