Biking update.  Almost back to normal distances.  My daily ride is 30-35 miles.  I ride 6 days a week and have just passed 1000 miles since the weather accommodated outside biking.  Off days are on the trainer in the  basement.  My objective there is to squeeze the knee as much as possible.  I still use a stationary bike pedal with a strap across the shoe on the repaired knee side.  That stabilizes the foot and allows me to ride with a reasonable degree of comfort.  While my speed is not where it was before the TKR I am slowing increasing it.  Currently I am only about two miles per hour slower and today I got within one mile.  It was great day with low 80's and virtually no wind.  On the trash front, Bud products are still the number one discarded can along the side of the road with Miller lite a close second.  Coke still rules in the soft drink discarded can category with Mountain Dew a close second.  Gee, I wonder who still tosses those items out the car/truck window in this era of environmental consciousness.  But it is what it is.  I am getting more confident that soon I will accomplish a century but I still don't want to rush it.  More later
