Any idea of what your recovery time will be?
Vic, my ortho said 6-8 weeks for a stationary bike. I asked him when I could get back on the road and he just smiled and said “we’ll see”. He senses my desire and aptitude but is just being cautious which I’m fine with. We’ve had a lot of discussions and he’s going to steer me straight. I’m not worried how long it might take as time is still on my side. What I don’t look forward to is the conditioning loss and regaining whatever form I can get back to. There’s a lot more work involved in rebuilding than maintaining!!!
