Thx Oakleaf

. When the first doc said 6-8wks normally for a bone to heal I kinda wanted to cry

. Not because of physical pain either. But, the ortho surg doc said a couple weeks I could try some stuff taking it easy if I felt ok. Having stiff bike shoes that don't let the foot flex is to my advantage. Versus if I were a runner with this same injury.

Oh so sad!!!! It will give you plenty of time to get the bike built though! That can take a while and is frustrating...

Thx that is a really good point. I was just thinking today... do I wait until I am healed, then proceed... or proceed now assuming it could take a while to get it. Seems like last I checked service was 1-2 weeks out.

Then today I saw a sure sign of spring. One of my yard bushes was shedding bloom buds preparing for leaves. I thought, "hmm, little bush are you trying to tell me something about my bike decision, or what?" lol.

Definitely get it started.

Spring has been here in TX for a few weeks now and I'm loving having the new bike...
