Patience, Patience
This evening I took a short ride for the first time in two weeks, just to test the water and see what’s up with the knee. It went pretty well, but I’m not quite there yet. Patience, patience.

The bicycle, the bicycle surely, should always be the vehicle of novelists and poets.

Thanks Johnny - it’s getting better everyday.

Alan
Thanks for posting about your knee. I came down with a case at the same time and actually found your blog while trying to find out about what might be wrong. I rested up over the weekend and I’m going to get back on the bike tomorrow. We’ll see how it goes.
@foglite
Best of luck and get well soon.
Alan
