Biking is getting somewhat back to normal. I am doing 30-35 miles three to four time a week. The knee is in pretty good shape but without the flexion needed to use clips. Instead, I use a pedal on the right foot with a strap. It allows me to rotate without the foot sliding off the pedal and the left foot remains clipped. For the first time this week convinced me I would be able to do a century sometime this fall. While I'm getting my distance back, my speed in another question. I have lost about 2-3 mph. However, there are times my speed is where I want it to be but not for the entire ride. I suspect that will come with more training. I should also mention that most motorists are very respectful but as usual there are always some idiots out there. During my last ride I was being passed by a panel truck. As it passed it slowed down, passed my by about a foot, and layed on the horn. Again, idiot. The heat has returned so I need to be extra careful remembering I'm still not conditioned like before. But it will come and look forward to my first century in a year.
