I'm new to this group and have a personally important query: Having
just had a L5/S1 fusion a month ago I'm closely following the
surgeon's/PT's slow recovery regimen. My question concerns the future,
say, beyond the first year. Have some in this group gone this surgical
route and recovered the ability to bicycle (60/70 mi per week) and/or
hike (8 miles, 3,000 elevation gain)--or--are these 'pie in the sky'
hopes and thus I should develop some other fitness goals?

I'd appreciate your experiences in this regard.
