What's your eventual "goal"? to be back on an upright road bike, racing with cat.3s? riding weekly century on weekends?
I had 3 neck vertebrae fused (C4-6) 2 weeks ago. My preferred type of cycling is touring, Randonneuring and ultra-distance racing. Doc said he would put me on the fast track. On the trainer and Rouvy now. Maybe actual cycling in a month. Concerned that my ROM may be too limited for certain positions, mostly the aerobars. Although I'm in a more relaxed position.
