Sprechen zie Deutsch? Par la vous France'?
Mambo Italiano? Pardon the spelling how about learning about a country and or Language that you would like to ride in sometime? Rick Steves does an excellent series on PBS you could probably get via your public Library Second the choices of Travels with Charley and Wheels north, if you have never read "the rider" by Tim Krabbe (I think that is the spelling) its great. I also enjoyed "A dog in a hat" What about cleaning the fleet? there was a thread somewhere recently about someone, also with some temporary physical restrictions, that had cleaned and polished the heck out of his bike and it looked awesome. Bicycling magazine had an article, maybe December 2007, about a months worth of small tasks to do for your bike that resulted in a clean mean lubed machine. You could probably find at least 40% that wouldn't violate the docs orders. If I was in your shoes I would probably haunt ebay for the absolute best deals I could find and have a full bike on the cheap ready to build by the time I was better. But that is really more of a sickness than a cure ;-) Good luck with the surgery and may you heal quickly and be riding again before you know it.
