    Thanks Doc, I already knew that, it comes with age, right????!!! :lol::lol:

    Saw Dr. Reiman in Murrieta yesterday for a 2nd opinion on my lovely left knee issue. Seems as though I have a "loose body" (a piece of ligament sheered off and is floating around getting caught).

    I am scheduled for an Arthroscopy on 5/6 and should be back on the bike by mid June and then have 4 weeks to build up for our Whistler trip in mid July!!!! :clap::clap::clap:

    Bummer that its more time off, but that's great that it is an identifiable (and fixable) problem! Good luck, and you are going to have so much fun in whistler!

    It's good to hear your on your way back on the bike. Can't think of a better place to get back on the bike then Whistler.

    Keith's uncle had something like that ... they fixed him up well. He does tons of rock climbing, and he is over 70! Best wishes Nancy! I'm glad to hear you'll be back soon - and just in time for Whistler!
