Title: WendyL - off the road for a while
Post by: WendyL on October 07, 2020, 02:27:36 PM

I’ve had some pretty major knee surgery yesterday and am looking at 6 weeks recovery plus 3-6 months rehab. Fingers crossed I’ll be back on the bike in time for Mudgee.

This video is a animation of the procedure I had. No blood and gore, but I’ve had a few people say it’s cringe-worthy.

Hope everything goes well Wendy and make sure you keep up with the physio regardless of how hard it feels.

The doc was very happy with how it went, and with how well I pulled up this morning

Good to hear you’ve come through it well. Rest up and I’ll be waiting to pick you both up then make sure you’re well cared for

Carrol and I hope you have a quick recovery with as little pain as possible and manage to be back on the bike with plenty of time before the rally :runyay

Thanks for adding the Video, it was very informative and explains the reason for such a long recovery time.


Cheers
Shiney & Carrol
