well i just could not wait any longer..

I rode last nite , took bike up to get some gas after having it sit for 25days...Then i rode to work this am....25days since surgery, doc will be mad, according to him i need 2 more weeks before i ride, but i feel fine and strong..i have been following his instructions to the letter , but i just could not take it anymore...guess im a bad boy... But man did it feel great!!!!!!!!!

If I could smack you I would......... So now you got it out of your system and you can park it for a couple of weeks......right? You might have felt ok this time but your body goes through different stages of healing and one of those stages may not feel to good next time around. Be patient..........don't pu**** (I bet it did feel good to ride again )

your prob right of course...i will have to ride it home...but i guess that will be enough for a couple more weeks... thanks i was just unpleasant to be around....the ride this am did get it out of my system i think though...i already feel better..

Rick; Please be careful riding so soon post-op. Maybe leave work a little early or stay late so you can avoid some of the crazies in rush hour traffic. (It's the last day of school down here and I almost got creamed 3 times on my way in this morning by people focused on things other than driving!) Blessings, Jennifer 253 / 171 / 137

Got home safe and sound...bike is parked and under the cover...and will let it sit for the next 2 weeks...sigh... This has to be the hardest part of the surgery !!!

Thanks for letting us know you made it home OK. (I can be a bit of a worry wart) The next 2 weeks should go by pretty quickly. Focus on your new lifestyle and the things you need to do to continue to improve your health and it will be here in no time.

It is the hardest part!! I know I could hear my Roadie Twinkle crying in the garage to get out for a spin.. twas the most pathetic sound you ever heard... a bike crying... brings tears to me eyes thinking about it!! I am glad you made it and it was a good experience for ya.. yeah it is the hardest part.. especially when you hear the brothers and sisters motoring by...

I rode mine about 10 or 11 days out and have been riding it since but am just 18 days post-op now. I haven't had any problems until a few days ago when I tried riding my bicycle through the neighborhood. The next day my main LAP incision site started burning and now it really hurts when I use the muscles in that area. My doctor told me I could start working out 2 weeks post-op so I thought I'd be OK but I guess not. I guess I learned the hard way.

NO way i could have ridden 10 days out, but i had the open bypass too...i guess there is some benefit to the laproscopic...
