How are you doing Bob? (Endobobdds) I could be wrong but I'm assuming you're in recovery mode from knee surgery? Just a shout out and hope for a speedy transition back on two wheels! :thumbsup:

Yeah, how are ya my good fellow?

Best of luck with the recovery.

Thanks for asking Pat and for the interest/concern of other board members that have reached out to me.

 

Surgery (1/23/19) was a total knee replacement and removal of a metal rod in my tibia from a previous motorcycle (track) accident.   Physical therapy 2X per week since and daily exercise since surgery.  Started 2 weeks ago going back to the gym and doing stationary spinning every day.  Still some pain during PT, however, now walking without a cane.   Still cannot fully straighten or completely bend back my leg. However, I feel that I am almost totally functional. 

Weather here in DC allowed me to take my first motorcycle ride yesterday.   Short 1 hour, easy ride without any problems. :18:

Bob, now tell us how many speeding tickets you got on your test ride.  :19:

That would be classic

Glad you're doing well, Bob! :thumbsup: It sounds like you'll be in tip top shape for Lake George! :clap:

I had TKR on my right knee last September.  I had three rods removed from the earlier break; a tibia plateau fracture.  The removal of hardware makes postop pain more acute.  I started riding again last month.  I started working out on my treadmill two weeks ago.

 

 You will get better but it’s a long process.

 

The Ossur Cold Rush is indespensible.  I often slept with it on.
