There's no such word as can't eh!

Lots of respect for him and other guys out there. :nod:
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

Agreed, that's some motivation and not letting anything get in the way

I once saw a bloke (I think it was a bloke) riding a motor bike near where I live, with his left arm missing. He seemed to manage ok as he peeled off at the roundabout at the top of my road :eek: (nuggitt knows which roundabout)

I once knew a young fella who, unfortunately, is no longer with us, who also had his left arm amputated. This was after a motorcycle road traffic accident. I first met him when I took some loose wheels in to a local tyre house to have new tyres fitted. Yes you've guessed it, he was a tyre fitter. The way he did the job one handed was unbelievable, though to him it was nothing special. I struggle with a push bike tyre :D During the course of my work (motor mechanic) I had need to take cars and trucks to him for new tyres fitting and other things, tyes and wheel related, and he did it all :nod:

I often wonder if it was him on the motor bike I saw that day, but sadly I'll never know now :question:
