Yeah -- I still ride. Stationary bike was an early part of my PT before I was weight-bearing on the leg (first 16 weeks or so). I was back on the road a month of so after I was walking; did a half-century on my old 2012 X-cal with 50mm gravel tires less than 6 months after the hit. Now, in truth, if I don't cycle the hip gets cranky fairly fast -- when the head of the femur went thru' the back of the pelvis it messed up my cartilage, so I need the spinning.

I was actually supposed to do the Majorca 312 this year. Probably for the best I didn't, but you never know!
