    So glad it's benign. Are you sure they can't do the surgery under a local? General anesthesia is very, very scary.

    2-3 days recovery to being able to bike is probably reasonable (assuming the cognitive effects of the anesthesia don't preclude it). Plan on quite a bit longer if you do any other sports, minimum of a month for anything that requires using your arms much (aerobics, racquet sports, golf eg). And, my yoga teacher/RN emphasizes that you should not do yoga with stitches in - she wouldn't even let me come to class until I got my stitches out after having a mole removed.
