Tpoppa Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 Torn distal bicep Surgery in a couple weeks. I've had surgery before, but apparently this one has a long recovery... FML. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what the surgeon said. I hurt it a few weeks ago exercising, but thought it was fine. Then again and it popped badly. It wasn't terribly painful, but the sound was unmistakable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 That sucks. I will hook you up with a pint of my Bourbon. F' that, a Quart. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connie14 Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 I feel your pain. I recently had an ACL reconstruction. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpoppa Posted August 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 I'm not sweating the surgery at all, but this recovery is going to suck. 6 weeks in an elbow brace, followed by at least 2 months of rehab. It won't be 100% for 6-8 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tpoppa Posted August 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 I busted my ass to get back on 2 wheels last year after neck/nerve issues. Life got me again just when I wasn't expecting it. I'll make it back in time for next season, and I'll ride to the gap next year. So...anyone want to buy a V Star? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life does have a way of kicking you in the balls just about the time that you think you have everything figured out. Speedy recovery man!

I'm glad we got to do the WV ride before you got dealt the shitty cards.
