  1. Just underwent a bit of elective surgery that my wife has been pushing for
    since the birth of our youngest. Not feeling to bad at the moment, though
    the boys are a bit tender. Don't see a lot of riding in store this weekend!

    For those of you who've had similar snippage, how long before you got back
    on the bike?

    take a icy six pack and the TV remote and park in front of the Olympics.
    for the weeked and ask on Monday..

    (you have to test clear, you know...)

    That's been the agenda for today. And I made sure to point out to the wife
    the *medically mandated* requirement for 15, er, test shots before it's
    official. I'll wait a few days to start that as well/

    I've heard that bags of frozen peas are really handy as ice packs in this
    situation. Sorry I don't have anything else to add. 🙂

    Hope you heal quickly.

    I find it interesting that the first two responses have been from women!
    Though I appreciate all the kind words. My lovely wife has been so kind as
    to supply me with alternate choices of frozen okra and corn. Both seem to
    work fairly well. My preference however has been for the okra simply
    because it makes for a funnier joke: "Is that a bag of okra in your pants
    or are you just happy to see me?"

    Take is easy there captain. You'll know when your big fellas are ready
    to roll again. Don't do what I did and go to the grocery store on the
    way home from the snippage because "they don't feel so bad."

    Ice 'em down like a wheat beer on a summer day, but drink something
    stouter. Frozen peas! Stay in bed or on the couch or whatever, you'd be
    surprised how much you knock them puppies around just walking to the
    fridge for another beer. Don't freak when they start looking like they
    need to be buried, they're just showing you how unhappy they are at how
    you've just treated them. Just marvel at the shades of purple your body
    can produce. And most of all, don't post a report with pictures.

    I guess I was lucky. I was back on the bike the very next day. I've heard
    horror stories about swelling and pain, neither of which I experienced. A
    little discomfort in the afternoon after surgery (if you want to call it
    that) and I was good to go.

    You still da man!

    that's because we ( I ) are always happy to see a guy acknowleding his part
    in the scheme of things, after what has typically been something the woman
    has to deal with for
    years and years. You won't regret it. It's a great thing to do when you are
    "done" as compared to "they aren't going to TOUCH me with that knife...."

    "Its a bag of okra goddamnit, DON'T TOUCH ME!" Been there, done that.
    Google the group for the details.
    15 shots? Thought it was 10. Do get your TWO tests though.

    At least 2 weeks. At 3 weeks I only rode on a smooth trail.

    Ack! You guys are scaring me with all this snippage talk. I just don't
    think I could ever do that because I enjoy the "full factory production"
    way too much.

  14. I wasn't doing much (read: any) bike riding when I was "done" so can't offer
    any advice there. However, it did take a couple or 3 weeks before riding the
    motorcycle felt "right" ;-)

    Come-on, those things don't expire... you just need to down 4 or 5 instead
    of just 1.

    and it's the ultimate romantic gesture, for a guy to get fixed. What are you
    afraid of, they'll miss and take some of the length off? I know, you'll be
    less of a man, right?
