I was able to get some puncture resistant tyres and a new inner tube with the $100 prize for doing the bike challenge survey. The puncture resistant tyres are a must with urban riding.

Waiting for a knee replacement. Hopefully in the next 2 months.
Then I really hope to be back on my bike and riding with you.

I just had mine back in Dec. 2021. I am back riding and am participating in the May Bike Month Challenge. It's been a struggle for me, but everyone is different. However you feel after your surgery just don't give up. You will get there. Good luck and a speedy recovery

I had my knee replacement surgery jus before Halloween, 2017. I did my PT religiously and walked a good bit. I was back on the bike by February 2018, commuting to work, training for century rides and getting back to the daily joy that cycling gives me. You'll be back on your bike soon enough. Walking and just getting around in daily life will be much better, too! You just gotta get past those first 72 hours after surgery. Good luck with the new knee!
