How about saddling up from the right side of the bike, this way you only lift your left leg over the seat. That is if you can bear all the weight on your right leg..? I know it's a hard habit to break but with a good purpose.

Well if you remember Phil he broke my left hip to so it is really harder to get the left leg up than the right. At least my right hip in intact so it bends better. This is just a temporary problem and it is easy enough to accomplish, it just takes a while is all. Like with all things related to my recovery, every time I do it it gets easier. See y'all on the Road!!!!!
LET'S RIDE!!!!!!

I know you were kidding, but you know what......That might really help out at least here at the house. We have something like that in the kitchen because my Cabinets go all the way to the ceiling. Hmmmmmm.

Hehe, I was kidding, to the extent that I deliberately posted a link to a colorful, plastic, kiddie stool, but the stool idea was a genuine suggestion.
