Cycling after a heart attack.

I am a 44 year old very healthy racing fit cyclist who had a heart attack 6 days ago. They put a stent in and removed a clot. Currently I do a easy 10k walk in the morning as I am a bit scared to get my heart rate up. I am waiting to get into the rehabilitation program and start excercising in the supervised cardiovascular gym and hopefully get my confidence back.
I can't find much information about excersising after a heart attack at racing intensity and I wonder if there are people on this forum who are in the same boat as me and are willing to share their experience.
