Well I had the op on Saturday under general anaesthetic, got home Sunday morning, took the dog for a walk and otherwise pottered about as normal. Went for a very short cycle today of 1 mile just to see what sitting on the bike was like and it was fine. I'll try a longer ride tomorrow. Very pleased with how it went as I was expecting to feel much worse.

Maybe too late to be of any help BUT just in case...
I had an inguinal hernia diagnosed in may 2009, I was at that time planning a 10 day tour of Italy with some mates. I bought myself... wait for it.... a hernia belt in fact two of them.
They helped me no end and was riding up to 60 miles a day fully laden prior to op.
Had my operation when i came back and was back on my bike steady away by February 2010 and in April was climbing Sa Calobra in Majorca on my racing bike.
Hope all continues to go well
