Got my Leg Over
« on: 14 February 2019, 10:14:30 am »
The bike that is. 4 months after my total left knee replacement I can get on the fazer, and reach the footrests. Very uncomfortable changing gear but that will get better, or I'll adjust the gear lever dowwards. Track day at Bedford in early May beckons.

Milestone!  Good news. :) 

Hope the physio continues to improve your range of movement and comfort on the bike.

Glad to hear you're on the mend , I know how you feel, I've just got back from my first ride after snapping my Achilles tendon 6 weeks ago. Certain positions are still a little painful but on the whole I'm glad to be back

Wow - that's serious surgery.
Hope it all settles down.
