Cindy dinner... did somebody say Cindy dinner?
Yippee-skippee and yee-ha!
I may actually ride this year, maybe, if Trek420 will kick my lazy butt up into my saddle.
Happy holidays to all y'all by-the-by.

C'mon Spazz- we'd love to ride with you! It's been forever since I've seen you on a bike and even longer since I've seen you here. Welcome back!

To make a long story short I think it got a hairline fracture over 4 years ago. The toenail went black immediately and fell off a couple days later (yuck) grew back (yeah!) and I just kept on riding and so forth. Didn't really bug me, I trained, rode 2 ALC'S, led training rides and so on.
This last ride a few months before June I got Sidis.
What's that they say on ALC "don't change anything 3 months before the ride"? Yeah, I know, I know, I know.
They felt like bunny slippers in the store , they felt good on commutes/errands 
, they felt (the right foot only) mildly irritating on longer training rides 
, which means they hurt like h#]] on ALC 
.
So my right big toe went "aaack, I don't like this shoe
" and the joint which is arthritic like the rest of me kinda fused. My right big toe pretty much imobile. Not hard when riding but you can imagine makes it hard to walk.
So if I fall over at dinner I'm not drunk, it's the toe.
I saw an orthopedic surgeon who agreed with me that I should do PT.
I saw a PT who said the joint will never move. She rides so if you're lurking here, nothing personal it's just that Knott had already designed a routine that is working, slowly but it's working so I have not been back to her. I may ask for another referral to a different PT, maybe Mackenzie trained.
Listen to Knott, she is very wise.Fancy Schmancy Custom Road bike ~ Mondonico Futura Legero
