Thank you, thank you...... Sounds like your doing great, and yes....do not rush to jump on your bike. There will be plenty of time for that.

Hey everyone - I survived! Not that I had a lot a doubt - but was a little worried. This is day 3 of being post-op. I watched American Thunder this morning and got the hankering to go for a ride. I guess that means I'm feeling pretty good considering. The first couple of days were a little rough, but I'm feeling considerably better now. I'll have to wait for quite a while, though. The day of surgery we got 4" of snow. It should finish melting off today, but its still way too cold, even if I was feeling up to it.

I'm still riding, I 'll ride all winter long. As a matter of fact, I'm on vacation next week and plan on riding quite a bit.

Naahhh... not damp up here. That would mean that the sun would have to come out for a few days and dry things out to that level. *LOL* ...it is always wet here. Good thing that I don't mind the rain. Isn't it amazing how arthritis suddenly becomes our own personal barometer? Of all the people in my family, I am the only one to have arthritis. Well... at the age of 32. I've been through car and motorcycle accidents, work-related stuff, and then my falls from a young Arab gelding that was half blind in one eye. He'd spook and jump faster than I could react, at first. I finally began to expect things. *snickers* Anyway, I digress... My mother used to just shake her head when I would come shuffling in and say that I had the mind of a teenager, but the body of an elderly woman. The plus side to all of this is that winter isn't all that long. In just a few more months, it will be spring and time to roll the bike back out for another year of riding.

Winter??? What winter??? he he......went riding this past sunday with hubby. Glad I live in Florida.
