Thanks for your thoughtful reply JC. I'll ask my dr. about bike riding and see what his advice is. The important thing to keep in mind is this order of evidence: #1 is Biopsy trumps all other tests, #2 is MRI, and #3 is the PSA score (specifically the amount of rise from test to test), so he advised me not to worry about the score by itself.

I really agree with your post and reply: "I will ask my Dr. about bike riding and see what his advice is." Exactly what a poster on MCC should do when reading experience of others. I am glad you posted that reply.
Only your doctors not those on MCC have examined you and have your complete medical history and are medical professionals to give you specific advise and guidance on what to do and not do.
I agree the biopsy is going to give you Gleason Score not PSA. PSA is just what one poster posted some time ago that it is like a "check engine light." Need to check prostate gland.
And your doctor gave you really accurate medical advice. It is the rise of PSA not necesarrily the number that is of concern.
It really sounds from your post you have an excellent doctor. Good luck!
