Default Going under the knife!

Tomorrow I go in for a repair of my left lower bisep. Tore the tendon off a week ago lifting some equipment at work. If all goes well the surgeon can reattach the tendon. If not he will take a tendon from my underside fore arm. Either way I'm not riding for a long while. Sucks! Anyway, keep the rubber side down! JR

Best of luck and heal quickly. I had rotator cuff surgery Jan 12 and rode for the first time yesterday. I was in a sling for 6 weeks, not much fun.

I'll keep you in my prayers but you'll be fine! Getting back in the saddle should give you the motivation to complete the Physical Therapy!!!
