I wouldn't dream of trying to get down to seconds for accuracy, and 
since I won't technically be allowed out on the roads until next Sunday, 
no chance to get ready to lead a 53 mile route.  In fact, I've not been 
able to recruit even an A or AA leader to do a 53 mile route in 
conjunction, so will have to settle for 31.4.


Next year, Pi Day rides will only be to 4 digits (3/14/16)... and that's 
it for another century.

Re: [RBW] Re: Bikes and Recovering from shoulder surgery

2015-02-21 Thread 'Tim' via RBW Owners Bunch
I agree with Steve about being rigorous with the PT, Cecily. Six months sounds 
like a long time, even for a full replacement. I had a double replacement in 
2010. I was on the stationary, mostly for range of motion, a few minutes at a 
time, after, I think, a couple of weeks. I was on my road bike after six or 
seven weeks (but I didn't tell my significant other until well after the fact!) 
I think, unless there are other issues, that six months is too conservative. 
But I am definitely not a doctor and I'm not you either. And, although I was 
only 49 and would like to have waited longer before getting the replacements, 
it was the best thing I could have done. I've been pain free ever since, and 
because I did good PT work, I have more range of motion than I had for the 
20-25 years prior to the replacements. Good luck Cecily!

Well, based on the experience of the only guy I know in the bike club 
who's had a full replacement, I'd say "Yay" is probably in order.  
Things went very well for him, recovery was fine, and first time out 
with the club after he was allowed out on the road (and that's not to 
say he'd been on outlaw voyages on his own prior to that) he rode very 
strong and had no trouble with a 38 mile ride, and was entirely free of 
the pain that led him to get the replacement in the first place.


Good luck with it.  And don't skimp on the physical therapy.

Doable without a doubt - there have been 3 nice days between the end of January
