If you can barely walk, can you cycle?

 

When I was learning how to walk again a few years back, cycling was part of my physical therapy.

My friend's physio also said it is one of the best ways to rehab his torn up knee ligaments after doctor said his knee will never work properly again. He says that today his other knee is the one that bothers him

I had a total hip replacement last year and cycling was recommended as part of the rehab and recovery

I could barely walk but once I crawled onto the spinning bike I borrowed All was good

Little bit. Couldn't bend knee for over a month. You'd be surprised at how much that ruins your walking ability.

Sagan's new addition to his custom 'Tourminator' machine. Reportedly, to be used when there are obstacles ahead (like his crash during the week).

The laaitie is having fun and bringing good vibes into the sport while the cloud of USADA is hovering over le Tour.

It is rumoured that a Lampre rider was storing booties into his jersey pockets.

There was a slowing down in the peloton and he only had one hand to brake and lost his front wheel.

Then the dominoes fell.

 

All this at about 70 km/h...

Hesjedal abandons after his crash yesterday.

 

He'll most likely match up to 'Berto in the Vuelta.
