Message: [QUOTE="tnrider, post: 823090, member: 43074"] unless you are a pro and make you living riding - i think you should reconsider racing immediately after recovery. you should allow some time for rehab of muscles and some non-injured time on the bike. i asked my ortho dr why my suggested recovery time was double (or more) that of what you hear of pro's doing when i was willing to drop all and dedicate time to physical therapy and his reply was - well, if you had NO other way of making a living, i would say get back on the bike and ride (so you can pay my bill...) as for workouts - stationary bike is great - i use both schwin arodyne (can do arms too) and bike rollers with and without a stationary bike mount. swimming is great rehab with little added stress and i lift using machines (no spotter needed) [/QUOTE]
