My own dilemna is similar. Suppose you are afflicted by a begign afflication of the wrist areas. Your doctors tells you that if you get off the sadle for a month or two you may heal, otherwise the afflication may get serious and you may never cycle again.
PB,
This one is simple:
Whatever you have to do to keep that body in good shape to ride, that's what you must do, even if it means taking a month off.
Once, I took about six weeks off. I don't remember why, but I know that I was really burned out from riding too far for my own
abilities.
Hey, what does it hurt to take two months off when you have the rest of your life to ride, man?
(Find out more, PB. Don't let those bad wrists keep you off the bike too long!
