Thank you ! I’m a rider for 59 years (couldn’t ride last year, because of my hips). 20 and 8 weeks ago, I had my hips replaced, recovery is very slow because of my age, I’m doing PT PT PT …..a lot, including sitting on my 3 bikes to exercise my legs, I’m pretty sure when it’s warm, I’m going to celebrate my 60th year of riding. Thanks for your encouragement.
@MrJOECHOU, thank you for checking out the video and commenting. Yes, continue being patient and allow your body to determine your speed of your recovery. All of our bodies are different! Physical Therapy is key to recovery and practicing those 90 days precautions are super important. I’m sure you’ll be up riding soon. Please do let me know when you take your first ride. I’d be curious to hear about your experience back on the saddle.
I so appreciate you making this video. I am currently in the process of getting a total hip replacement at 68. I have a Harley that's been sitting in my garage for 6 months and was thinking about selling it believing my riding days are over but you have given me a different perspective on things and ,I thank you. 👍
I'm going in for hip replacement both hips this year (one after the other doe to severe Osteo A) - predominantly because I cant ride more than 20 mins without being in agony and then after 30 minutes - I simply cannot get off the bike...I'm rider trainer, ex racer, previous shop owner, bikes are my therapy and life and now aged 50 - scared as hell to undergo the surgery and praying I get more movement back after surgery. Thanks for posting your video. It shows me it's possible.
@sire9220, I understand exactly how you feel when you said, “I simply can’t get off the bike!” I laughed out loud when I read that statement! Technology has come so far from 10 or 20 years ago, and I’m very confident that with a great doctor, you’ll find the end result most rewarding. Having both hips done will definitely require more patience from you as you work through physical therapy. Be kind to yourself throughout the process, take it one day at a time, work physical therapy consistently to get your full mobility, and I’m sure you’ll be up a rolling in no time. I’d love to see a pic when you are back up and riding. 🙏🏿Vance (1TITEMOTO)
@Brianmahoney, it’s was the best decision I’ve ever made. Oh what a difference it makes riding with a new bionic! Wishing you a fast and successful recovery!

@samueldelozier, you got it! Oh what a difference a new hip can make when riding! Good luck with your surgery.
