Well before the little guy, I used to ride my scoots exclusively, unless it was raining or icy.
20 years of being an automotive technician/glazier has taken it's toll on my spine, leaving me with 25 bulged discs and two herniated at c6 and c7.
So sadly, I'm lucky if I get to do 40 miles in a week, and if I do dare ride 40miles in a single day, I'll be hurt up for a really long time. My doctors have given me an 'open' prescription for whatever opiates I want, but I adamantly refuse to take any pain killer that is not ibuprofen (seriously, ibuprofen STOPS pain, opiates just get you high).
Somehow, I manage to spend at least 20 hours a week fixing the club's bikes. These days I wrench much more than I actually ride. Sigh
