Rehab update-Well it finally happened. Took my first ride outside last Wednesday. It wasn't much of a ride, just around the block, but at least I was able to ride. My major concern wasn't whether or not I could rotate the pedals, but how my balance was effected. As it turned out, the old adage, "it's like riding a bike" is true. My balance was not affected and my pedal rotation was consistent. With no clips, I am able to move my foot to a position where pedaling without rotating my hip is possible and reasonably comfortable. But, since the weather has turned harsh again, I will keep to my biking in the basement on the trainer and the stationary bikes at the gym. Now on another note, I have just started aquatic rehab exercises. And, this really makes a difference. I will be going once, maybe twice a week. So far, after aquatics, my knee really flares up. I was told that is part of the rehab process. It is taking the knee to a new level. I'm looking for 120 degrees by Christmas. Stay tuned.
