Working out

Dirtclods

I'm coming up on two months after my Prostatectomy and I see my Urologist

on Jan 10th, 2025.

My questions for you guys.

1. Have any of you been riding your bicycles any issues?

2. Do Any of you ride dirt bikes with any issues?

I've only been walking and NO GYM at all!

Note: I'm 66

Check out a thread on a Mountain Biking forum. In general, you can google on "Prostate cancer" on the forum and get hits old and new.

I was thinking of asking a similar question. I am 6 months post surgery and still feel uncomfortable just sitting on a bike (street bike) or even a stationary bike. I know there are seats made that dont put pressure on your tender area, so looking for recommendations on what brand/type people have had experience with.

Looks like it has been removed

Just an " UPDATE" I saw my Oncologist today, who said I can start working out again and surf! But no bicycling or dirt bike riding for another four weeks!!!!

Sounds like fun; but don’t overdo it and be careful. The bikes can wait a bit longer.😀
