Good for you--and for this overpopulated planet--sir! I was riding again after about two weeks. Funny vasectomy story from another cyclist: Cyclist is a racer and a dealer rep, his head is constantly full of cycling stuff. His doc, who performed the operation in the office with cyclist under local anasthesia, is likewise. Doc kept talking about his new Eddy Merckx all through the surgery. Cyclist kept biting his lip to keep from correcting doc's pronounciation of "Merckx" which changed with each uttering of the name. Said later he figured he didn't want to correct the speech of somebody with his hands operating on delicate eqiuipment.
