Normally, yes. I'm a cyclist. I am co-captain of the sports medicine team on the AIDS/LifeCycle Ride, the world's largest private fundraiser for AIDS services and prevention. I ride with the cyclists as they're training. However, this June I injured my shoulder and haven't ridden since.
No, it wasn't a crash. The Ortho Surgeon says it was from loading the trucks over and over during the ride. I have years of experience with driving & loading trucks and warehouse management, so I drive the Sports Med/Chiro Team/Massage Team truck. In the years past I have always been in the front of the truck loading and unloading each item on the truck. From now on I'll be pointing and using my experience from a distance. No more truck loading for me. I'm learning to shed the super hero persona.
The same thing happened to me last year with my right shoulder, only it wasn't diagnosed as torn labrum. They never did an MRI on that side. But I can tell you the symptoms and experience was just the same. A little worse on the left side this year, but essentially the same.
I like to ride a road bike. I feel like the road bike is dangerous enough. Mountain bikes are so dangerous I tend to white knuckle the handlebar. And I'm not really a nervous sort. I'm an adrenaline junkie, but that may be why I'm in the circumstances to white knuckle the handlebar. I go too fast, almost all the time.
Hey Lisa, I dont know whats happening with the private chat on here! I'm getting nothing on screen that tells me you want to chat. Do I have to be on the main page or what.....are you chatting with every one else ok cos I wouldn't ignor you.
Hi Lisa. Mountain biking sounds like alot of fun. Especially with a group. I bike too but mine is a Harley. And Pa is cold and crappy. I live in Pittsburgh and all the parkways and interstate highways where actually shut down for about 4 hours last sunday from ice. It was in the 20's last week. 30's this week . You know how it is . Enjoy your 60's there and good luck with the holidays. Ready or not they will be over soon enough. Take care

How long were you in Manchester for?
I live in Scotland now, but I'm really a Londoner.
