Is anyone out there riding with replacement hip and knee. Had my knee done in Feb. and my hip scheduled in May and was wondering if my riding days might be over. Gl 1800/ Roadsmith trike

I had both knees replaced in 2012. That was the same year I started riding again after a 30 year break. 2012 was a GL1500 2 wheeler, and I recently got a GL1800 Trike. I haven't had any hip issues, so can't speak to that. Follow your physical therapist instructions and really work on your range of motion. You should be OK.

Thanks for your reply. Hopefully i'll be able to get back in the saddle again. We sure are missing it.

I got very sick last year on the "Tail of the Dragon" and had to get helicopter'd out... I had a "full blown seizure" and couldn't ride/or drive for the next six months BUT I'm back and looking forward to this season's riding......."let the fun begin"!

Thanks for the reply. Enjoy your trike
