I had a spinal stenosis operation (widening of the spinal canal) and was riding my recumbent trike 8 days later, only did 4 miles the following day walked 5 miles the next day rode 7 miles but we are all different your body will tell you when it's time don't rush it.
Good luck for a quick recovery.

Get well soon!

Speak to the physios if you want to get back in the saddle, they can give you pedals to use to help you build back up.

Talk to your consultant about getting back on the bike. I'd also consider hydrotherapy....

Won't the bike get wet?

I have a gun, Browning 525, but sorry I am not allowed to shoot you.

I also have had spinal surgery. Discectomy and spinal decompression. I asked for permission to cycle after a few weeks and was told to listen to my body and take it easy. I used a Turbo Trainer up until 6 weeks, then went for it on the road.

Hydrotherapy? Isn't giving them rabies a bit extreme?

I believe @User has custody of the pearl handled derringer in case there's any casualties to be desptached on the FNRttC. He may be able to oblige, if you've got a handy ditch nearby

Talk to Physio and surgeon about staged return to activity. I'd still assume a couple of months until you can go near a bike. Do your Physio v diligently

I'll second what vickster says about the physio. The physio's the one who'll get you back on your feet: if you do the exercises they give you religiously, it'll speed up your recovery immensely. If you find any of the exercises too hard or painful at first, tell them and they ought to be able to suggest an alternative.

Heal well and swiftly!

Best wishes for your recovery.

[QUOTE 4731608, member: 259"]I've got a couple of handguns, three shotguns and two airguns. This is because I've got registered secured storage for the 'real' guns and some neighbours were told they couldn't take theirs back to the UK without huge amounts of red tape. All I've ever done with the whole lot is shoot a couple of beer cans.

But I'm not available for shootings!

Hope you get well soon though!
