Carlisle hospital for 6 week post op review.
Dr - how do you think you're doing?
Me - a bit shit, to be honest. Not back on the bike properly, not yomping up Skiddaw.....
Dr - stop being a dick, you're doing, much, better than most. You can start doing short rides next week. As I said, stop being a dick and just listen to your body.
Me - fair enough, then.
