- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: January 1980 Yamaha RD200 vs 16 wheeler truck, result, 1 totally paralysed right arm. I was 21, now 54. I had no surgery, I don't regret this. Decided to totally ignore limitations (easily done aged 21) adapted very quickly to one handed life, got married, had 3 kids, worked- the effect of the injury on my life (once the pain stopped being constant) was minimal and now, aged 54, I very rarely even think of it, unless I bash it or it gets cold, then I wish I'd had it amputated :) Except for a steering knob on my car, I have no adaptations to help with life, mainly because I honestly don't think of myself as disabled and the only thing I can't do is peel potatoes, which is definitely a good thing.

Re: Here I am!
If you look at the full size image, follow the straight coastline down to the volcanic outcrop and into the first inlet where there's a port visible. We live directly on the other side of the hills next to the port, there's a green valley you can see with a few houses in it. Kath's right, that's where I go riding :0)
It's a beautiful part of the world and the sea really is that colour, no photo enhancement there.

Re: Here I am!
ps that port is one you visit if you go on a Pacific cruise that takes in NZ. I meet lots of Americans day tripping from cruises. If any of you do this, pop in for a cuppa tea!
