19 weeks and 5 days have passed since that day. Today I went back out on my bike for a proper ride. I awoke to a beautiful day, the sun was shining, there was a cool crispness to the air and I knew I had to go.
It started with a bit of an uncomfortable feeling in my hip joint as I spun the pedals, but it soon settled down. Just a local loop, familiar, non taxing trails. I say non taxing, but all the climbs taxed the hell out of me. Burning in my thighs, and even a head ache. A wheezing from my under used, shallow breathing lungs. Snot rockets. It was all coming out. It felt great. A comedy ‘foot stuck in pedals’ fall topped it off.
I’m glad to be back.
That’s fantastic news, Tom. From the pictures you posted of your X-Rays, it looked like a horrible break. 19 weeks is a long time out, but I’m sure you’ll be back up to speed in no time.
I’m getting on great with your old 575 by the way, so thanks again for sorting me out!
wow has it been that long?
just in time for the start of mud season – good timing!! ;D
Welcome back Tom!
good news 🙂
Nice Swan Tom :o)
Great news Tom.
Will you be joining us on a Tuesday night soon?
Welcome back! 19 weeks ain’t bad at all, I was 10 weeks before they’d let me off crutches with the same injury and fix, and about another 10 before I could get on the motorbike- just didn’t have the flexibility or strength.
Since I’ve started riding one month earlier than the recommended time I will still be taking it easy. Therefore no night time riding yet… and possibly not this year. It’s the risk of impact rather than use that is the problem. Need to get some of those padded shorts. I have another check up early January, so will see what they say then.
The climb up to that bench is not easy (from the car park), or legal 😉
Welcome back. About time you got to another dig day as well!
Cheers
Tim
Welcome back fella. Take it easy. For a bit.
Cheers
Paul
