He rides an old Harley and a Kawazukiha or something with no problems either. He says he just thinks of his plastic knees as integral sliders. Oh, and he's in his 60's!
Get well soon!!

Hi Dave
It's a great hospital and view - 5th visit for me and always lucky to get the view! Maybe you were the guy in the room next door!!!
Good to hear your friend plays golf and has had 'the op' I used to play county golf but stopped most sport 3 1/2 years ago. Was thinking about golf again as an easy sport on the old knee..I'll walk the course but think I might use a trolley rather than carry as I used to.
I think I'll convert the golf trolley into a Ducati version - think this might be my recovery project!
Intergral sliders, like the thinking...
What do you ride?

Thanks for the best wishes
M
