A lot depends on your age and fitness level as to how fast you can come back. At 30 I had the surgery and felt much better year 2 than year 1 and I'm an avid gym person.
As mentioned above do lots of core. Be carfull bending and lifting. IF you ride this year take it easy and prob not till later to avoid re injuring which was also mentioned above.
What do they do in a disectomy? I have 2 herniated discs right now in my back and doctors wants me to do physical therapy which I am gonna. But I am 29 workout everyday and been working like crazy on my core but I can't seem to do many core exercises because of the back pain. Honestly wish they would just fuse it together and be done with it.

...been trying the chiro and PT route...not sure it's much better...
2 rounds of Steroid injections finally put me back to about 95%. Chiro made it worse in a big way. I finally went to a back doctor recommended by my regular doctor and have been much better. I still get the reminder twinges to be careful, and I can't sit on the floor for very long, but I feel tons better. I have two herniated discs mixed with a little stenosis. I understand 'roids don't work for everyone but they worked for me.
