I started riding last week with my bionic brace for my knee. Its been jsut 7 weeks off the bike. Its a btich riding with the brace due restriction from the brace's limited knee angle. Not to mention it hits the top tube. I bought a slightly less cumbersome brace so now it manageable. Did 80 combined miles last week breaking it up to 20 miles per ride. I tried to keep my usual pace of under one hour on my 20 mile loop with a couple of small hills. No go. My heart and lung was about to come put of my chest, was all I heard. Getting old sucks. Going out again in a few to try to make that under an hour. After that, I have hump up my one mile hill to my front door. Got to get it done.

Just keep going... "I'm getting better not older"
