    Seven years ago, I had the same break. No surgery, many months of immobilization and a great deal of physical therapy followed. I have regained total mobility with some tenderness if I push heavy carts, but very little. I have continued to do the exercises and added more. Keep up your healing and you will be amazed at how bodies can do wonders!

    Larry, I think it's best to not even try to figure out how your bike accident happened. Sometimes things just happen and nobody ever knows how. Just a freak accident. I'm just glad you recovered so well when it could have been so much worse!

  • @thebestwillow

    Glad that both of you are doing well. Getting 100% on my rotator cup took 2 years. The last 5% took the longest. I hope you heal faster!
    It's great that Larry is back on the bike. I have been riding for 12 years. I retired a bit early at 62 years old and part of the reason is saving money by riding the Ebike. Larry tends to do longer trips but I use it for basic transportation. It's my main in-city transportation over the years saving money over gas. The other thing is it keeps me healthier and I find that my pulse rate is much higher on the Ebike than walking.
    Ebikes have gone down in price. They start as low as $400 and up. This is much lower than the $1500 I spent to build the Cargo bike.
    I am sure Larry meets many nice people on his rides and I have talked to many people on the trails. Now that Ebikes are becoming more popular lockup points are being used more. I went grocery shopping last Friday and another Ebike was at the grocery store.
    I am down to 2-3k mikes a year by car so this adds up to major savings.
