I was diagnosed today with a small rotator cuff tear in an otherwise healthy shoulder (from a nasty spill at Whistler). It seems like surgery will be the answer but I'm being told the recovery time to bike riding is 4 months+. Given Indiana is now on the cusp of tolerable weather this is very disappointing news.

I'm looking for comments by others that have undergone rotator cuff surgery and how they fared in riding, using a training, MT vs. road bike and anything else that might be helpful.

Thanks in advance.
