I remember a foot injury that for some reason kept bugging me for weeks and weeks, perhaps because I kept riding with it.. We'll keep Coe in good shape for you!

Patrick, Dirk, Paul, Charlie here... I think I hear Henry Coe calling. I've said this to some of you -- I'm optimistic that I will return on my bike soon. And when I do, I want to ride far, deep, and steep! :-D Thank you all for the positive thoughts! Let's see… Patrick, Dirk, Paul, Charlie here… I think I hear Henry Coe calling.

I wonder if with the change in pedals, you were twisting a little more to release...maybe that contributed? I want to wish you a speedy recovery and yet at the same time say please be patient with yourself and let this heal completely. ///Charlie Ouch, ouch, ouch!

Thanks for the encouragements and tips! There is a pool at the gym, so swimming might just work, but is that winter at my door? Got a cold chill already. Hey, wish you a speedy recovery in your knee too, Cara! Let's kick the injuries' butt together! Hi Cara! Thanks for the encouragements and tips!

Foot injuries suck. Take it super easy recovering- it is so not worth it to push things, especially early on in recovery (I learned this lesson the hard way with my last big injury before my current knee thing-- my foot. If you need a recommendation for a fantastic podiatrist, by the way, let me know). Once you are ready, if you are inclined, swimming without kicking (use a pull buoy) is a good way to get in safe foot-free exercise.
