Withdrawal Symptoms

So it's just over a month since I last ride my bike, having withdrawal symptoms & waiting on clearance from surgeon as to when I can ride again. I can start walking without the moon boot next week but still have use it when I'm at work. Must remember not to drop my bike on my foot next time I slide out on river gravel.

I've got 3 Alvusion Fractures in my right foot/ankle, rode 150+kms home after the incident as I wouldn't leave my bike unattended. Got lots of arthritis in ankle from previous injuries/surgery & have been told I'll need an ankle replacement in a few years. Will ride as soon as I can walk without moon boot & crutches.

    Bristolbiker20, Damn, that's major knee surgery. Hopefully you make a full recovery & can ride without limitated movement.

Took over a year of recovery for me to get back to 100%, it was difficult, but when I had the strength back and was able to put my foot down while on the bike safely, was a good feeling to be on again.
