Going on the DI list

[mark]

Turned in a nice 175 mile ride on a great Sunday. Now I have to park the Nomad,seems my left knee and the orthopedic surgeon are going to meet up on Thursday for a little cut and stiching!! (not riding related) will be out of action for 4 to 6 weeks. I guess I will just keep the bike clean..

[socwkbiker]

I hope the surgery goes well Mark. I'll keep you in my prayers for a speedy recovery.

[markusmaximus]

From one Mark to another, good luck with the surgery. Don't push it; the Nad will be waiting when you are ready.

[Yellow Jacket]

Hope it all goes well and you have a quick recovery!

[davidjones1]

ride safe.

[bigdave]

Hope everything goes well and you have a quick recovery

[bluetongue]

Hope everything goes well for ya. I had knee surgury about 3 years ago and was off my leg for 6 weeks so I feel your pain.

[waterman]

Good luck on the surgery. Let the knee heal right the first time.

[coacha]

Good luck on the surgery brother. Hope you get all good looking nurses for the sponge baths...oh wait, probably out patient deal. Bummer for you.

[rlfaubion]

Wish you the best - don't go nuts during the recovery..... Good Luck!

[chainsaw]

What they all said Mark. Speedy recovery.

[hollywood]

Don't turn down rehaab if it's offered. It'll get you back on the bike a lot quicker. I've had both knees worked on and I am probably looking at a complete knee replacement in 3-4 years. Good Luck on your surgery!

[billmac]

Best wishes. Been there and done that. Glad I had it.

[ringadingh]

Good luck, Now you can have the bike cleaned and serviced a bit while your recovering.

Good luck

[pirate]

Mark, here's wishing you a healthy recovery. I'm sure it'll be tough looking at the Nomad for a while, but it will be worth it. I'll put some miles on for you!

Mark, good luck with the surgery. I wish you a speedy recovery.

[rksaw]

+1 to what they all said...and if you can't stand it: grab the chaps, an powerful fan, sit back and close your eyes!

[oldbikers]

Mark good luck to you and like everyone said don't push it I have had 2 neck surgeries in the past year so I know what you are going through just take it easy and every thing should be OK. Bea and I will keep you in our prayers

[VulcanE]

Mark, good luck with the surgery, and like they all have sid, let it heal right the first time, AND you might want to make sure your tank is full before you park it for that long. You will be in our prayers.

[cheriann]

Best of luck to you Mark!
I had knee surgery for TWO large meniscus tears in the same knee last year...OUCH! PLEASE use the rehab/physical therapy!!! It made a huge difference in recovering faster for me.

[unwind2]

Good luck....speedy and complete recovery.

[phenrichs]

Throw a hand shifter on and bolt on a sidecar for balance. Then you wont have to worry about weight on the knee.

Just kidding Mark. Nomads are a faithful and loyal breed. Your trusty steed will be waiting when you return.
God's speed on your recovery.

[lw]

Prayers for a successful operation, full recovery and minimal Nomad withdrawals.

[dogdoc]

Hoping for a skilled surgureon, quick recovery and ride easy mark!

[caddman11]

This gives you a nice excuse to suck down a few brews!!!! Good luck with the surgery and I hope you have a quick recovery.

[classic1]

Sorry for the late reply. Hope everything went well. Time wise, looks like you'll be back on your bike for some fall foliage rides. Good luck with everything.

[kawgirl]

I hope all went well with the surgery and you have a quick recovery. Been there myself.

[rksaw]

We're all waiting to hear the results of the surgery and praying for the recovery.

[Cajunrider]

Good luck with the surgery. I had my right knee scoped in 1989 for a buckethandle tear in the meiniscus. Pretty painful for a few weeks. Be sure you are healed and the leg is strong before getting on the Nomad. A slight loss of balance or slip on a weak or painful leg could spell disaster. Prayers for a speedy recovery....
