Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Not unless you put them inside said anatomical place. They are good for UTI's though. Oh good, off the diarrhea topic and onto the urinary/reproductive system. Hope Heathie happy.

Have I recovered from surgery.
Is the Pope pcad, does the sun rise in the east, is water wet. Back at work in three weeks and onto the bike at two weeks. I have not felt this good in 10 years. No exaggeration.

I'm surprised nobody else took a swing at that one.

Also, I passed my favorite sheep farm on today's ride.

Did you do your own knee replacement? You know, avoid the middleman.

Been there and done that. Buenos Aires is a terrific city, the area called La Boca is a cool, bohemian area near the waterfront. Lots of places like you mentioned. The tango is a cool dance.

That makes us almost kissing cousins.
As such, I (and by implication/shared ancestry, rjones) always rooted for the Indians in the old westerns.
They always lost....badly.
This ended up depressing me.
This depression was forever lifted by Daniel Day Lewis and " The Last of The Mohegans ".
Got it?
Am not.

No, I had the hip, pcad had the knee. The knee, btw, is a much more difficult recovery. Hips are a piece of cake. The knee though, that's a tough one.

My mother and father have had both knees replaced. They did the pre-surgery exercises and were diligent with the post-op exercises. I can't keep up with their walking pace.
