You have a DRZ, crashes don't count on it. It is just expected.

Ups and Downs here, too.

Officially divorced in June
Been single for a year now
Moved into my own place
Finally got a Great Dane and he is the love of my life
Got a much better job that I LOVE

The biggest downer this year was moving 7 times in 12 months but I think unless I find a job out of state, that this last move on my own is my last for at least a year!

Not too much of a 'bad' year -- just a lot of self discovery coming with being single for the first time in my life ... and finally learning to love it!

I think 2011 is going to be a really fantastic year for me

Flip flops and cruiser floorboards don't mix well either boss. But we made it work.

Well, we can't all be spindly giants boss. And yeah, it pretty much looks like its on the kickstand unless it rolls over. You have me there.

And Gas, you won the kickstand substitution award on that trip but I managed to excel recently in an incident which I'll share with the group:

The trophy was crushed under the massive weight of your bike as it compressed a section of planet earth
