PT is progressing nicely but I am still not allowed to bear weight without the boot. Follow up with the Doc on Monday. I haven't ridden since the week before Thanksgiving. Darrell, I don't know how you Northern boys do it, But it really sucks.
Right, though lot's to say about an off-season. Look at the miles Darrell puts on once the final snow plow rattles through.

Sounds like a very cautious surgeon.
Agree with Wayne - listen to your physical therapist. The big risk with this much time off is sufficient muscle atrophy, so you'll step out of your boot and right off, sprain your ankle.... Take care. Hopefully the schedule will work out for September. A good ride always makes the downtime seem insignificant.
