I had Rotator Cuff Repair and Bicep Tenotomy on July 1st. The bicep tendon was 75% worn through so he cut it. The doctor said if he repaired the bicep tendon the recovery would be quite a bit longer. I was cleared to ride after 6 weeks and I have ridden several times but no more than 20 miles. I would say right now I am about 75% of where I was and expect to be 100% in 6 more weeks or so. The therapy is uncomfortable to put it mildly but you have to do the therapy to prevent "frozen shoulder" which I have heard is no good. I was lucky this time because he able to repair it arthroscopically. I had my right shoulder done in 2007 the Rotator Cuff was shredded and he had to do the surgery "open". That recovery was much longer. It was 12 weeks before I could do most anything. Good luck and try to do the excercises at home as well as at therapy.
