Default im home, knee done for now

got the tendons and cartlidge done today. gota use some crutches 2 two weeks. long as knee dont start hurting real bad the knee reconstrution can wait till dec or jan doc says. that way i wont miss very much riding time, which on the home from hospital i think i seen half dozen harleys on the road and a fatty in front of us for a few blocks which needless to say was eating a hole in me. i wont use my stands in bow season but ill still be able to use my ground blinds, doc says no climbing. this way i can get the other part done to my knee during the off riding and hunting seaon and should be good to go when it all starts back up. prob not the right place for this post but just wanted to let you all know all is cool and feel much better already. like i always say be safe guys and gals when your out there.

Glad to hear it went well! Sorry about your inability to ride, but you'll be back before you know it!

nice that they were able to put it off till winter, I get annoyed when I'm forced to use my truck for anything... Then again our riding season is way too short.

Had mine done before as well. No fun, but better than bum knees. Best of luck that your motoring around soon.

You were kinda between a rock and a hard place anyways. Have the surgery done in the winter= no hunting, have the surgery done in the summer= no bike riding. Well I like ground stands just as well as tree stands, take'm nose to nose.
Heal fast.

I wish you a quick recovery. Ice bags help more than the vicodin..although a beer and a vicodin does make for a nice nap.
