thats similar to me, i was back on a bike 4 weeks after a knee reconstruction cause that was when i could bend it enough - you didnt think i was going to wait 8 weeks did youI-K wrote:They're such pessimists, orthopaedic surgeons... after my knee reconstruction in October last year, I was supposed to stay off the bike for two months. I lasted three weeks. It took that long until I could bend my knee far enough to get it onto the peg... another few days, and I could do it without having to use my left hand to lift my leg off the ground and bend my knee into position...Phil wrote:considering i nearly broke down and cried in the orthopedic surgeons office this morning when he told me it would be at least 8 weeks untill i could ride again, i guess that means i'm afflicted too.
...in the meantime, I cheered myself up during the week and a half I spent convalescing in bed by buying my current ZX9 off Ebay.
Now I'm off to have a cigarette on the front porch, and I'm taking my coffee with me.
