Argus Cycle Tour 2016

Congratulations to all my patients who completed the Argus Cycle Tour on Sunday 6th March. Having taking part in the race a number of times I know the training and effort that it costs to have a good race. This is such a beautiful ride. Every year that I give it a skip (for some reason or another) I end up with deep regrets!

I am aware of four of my patients on whom I have performed knee replacements who took part successfully in the race. I therefore must convey special congratulations to Mr Brandon Senekal, Mr Kees Meijer, Mr Petrus Steyn and Mr Altie Krige. Mr Senekal has sent me a number of pictures of his journey to recovery that I will feature in my next blog. The picture I have included here is of Mr Kees Meijer who had a left total knee replacement approximately 11 months ago .Thank you Mr Meijer for sending us this beautiful picture of you looking very strong! I must also mention that Mr Altie Krige completed the race in 3hours and 32 minutes. Wow! What a superb achievement!
