pneumonia is no fun, I had a bout with it about 7 years ago. I was down for a month and didn't feel right for 3 months after that...

at least you have a bonnie to gaze at if not ride. Get well soon!

That's why I Never get a flu shot. Last time about 15 yrs ago and I was sick for a month after. Haven't had the flu (or the shot) since. Will be nice ride weather this week 40's/60's for high/low. Probably windy, but this is Tucson just have to deal with gusty crosswinds.

I've never had a flu shot, my grandfather got really sick (and eventually was crippled) from a vaccination he got in the Navy (Swine Flu). That happened before I was born and my mother swore we would never have flu vaccinations.

I never had flu shots either. The only shot that ever landed in my arm was pushed in by me and by the "Grace of God" I don't have to do that anymore!

Gaptooth - I hope you beat your pneumonia quickly!

Talking Get well

Gaptooth - hang in there, it'll be spring before you know it.

As for flu shots - never had one, never will. In fact I stay away from all medicine and doctors as they will kill you (and take your money) faster than anything.

Hey Gapper

You have any more complications, which I hope not,You didn't look very good at the pharmacy the other day, don't hesitate , give me a shout. Hope you get well. If and when you get that $1,000,000 dollar bike done, you're gonna blind everybody on the street with all that chrome and I'll bet she'll 'get it' with those pancakes on it! Later. Speed.:
