Not give up riding. Had you going. No I gave up smoking. Been smoking since I was 19, Cold turkey. Had to go back to Sacramento,Ca. to finish up on some workers comp test they wanted. On the way there I got sick. It got worse. I spent 3 days in my motel room coughing and sleeping. and just trying to get better. Did my test. Didn't get to see any friends while I was there as I was affraid that I would get them sick. Off and on I would try to have a cigarette. Well it didn't work, made things worse .Coughing was harder and ribs began to hurt as if I had fallen down and cracked them. Well, That did it for me. It has been a little over 2 weeks and haven't picked one up yet. I am still coughing but not like I was then. Guess my lungs are cleaning them selves up. The urge is still there and will probably will always be there. But then I think......Do I want 40 more years of riding or a short life of hacking and coughing and being put in the ground six feet under OR would I rather ride and have the air going around me then be sitting in some hospital with a tube up my nose. Also I would like more time with the family. Bottom line. Besides, I told the wife that what I save in not buying cigarettes, I can buy goodies for the bike. LOL. Be safe Bill

I have been battling the flu or something like it for over 2 weeks, family was sick, half the people at work were sick,I went to the Dr. on Friday and he said I was on the verge of pnuemonia. Then we had a fantastic weather weekend for riding and Im stuck:bang head: indoors coughing my head off, running fever, headaches, cant sleep laying down. I finally was able to sleep in my bed last nite for the first time in 3 days.......because every time I would lay down I would start coughing my head off. Cough syurp helped some but not enough. I am still home today from work, luckily I only missed 2 days with it, and hopefully back to work tomorrow. Wont be riding this week either rain forecast for most of the week.......So goes life.
