Hiya all, I got my hip resurfaced on Sept 11th. I could start riding about 5.5 weeks. Now its in my 7th week since surgery, and still have pain getting out of the saddle, so big hills are a no no yet. So hear is your news that if you need a hip resurfacing/replacement, and still love cycling, do it!!!!! I don't have the pain anymore that I had before, but the groin muscle that was shortened all the time I limped, is having trouble getting stretched and longer. It's still giving my trouble. But man the chapping I used to get from my leg being shorted cause of limping are gone! So I just rode 30 miles yesterday and 25 2 days before that and 30 2 days before that. And no chapping! So if you have hip pain get it done, you can be back on what you love doing in about 4-5 weeks!
