Either OK with me apart from this coming Tuesday when I've arranged to :roll: cough (says it quickly) have a look at a frame.

I think I've finally worked out why my knee is swollen , appears to be a quadricep strain

http://www.sportsinjuryclinic.net/cyber ... strain.htm

Seems to be grade 2 .

I reckon since I haven't been riding and only sitting on my arse to then being stood at work for hours on end its pulled it . had been taking ibuprofen and cocodamol but they might as well be lumps of sugar for all the good they do , I hadn't taken any kind of medication since I put my back out around 2003 so I'm surprised they have had no effect whatsoever . Don't have much of a limp today so seems to be healing but I still can't bend it past 90degrees ; most worrying of all I used to have quite a large muscle there but no matter how much I tense my leg it seems to have disappeared :shock:

I think it'll be a while until I've got that back

Yes, Tuesdays or Thursdays work just as well for me...

I've got 3 hours at the weekend and 3 hours during the week to ride a bike...when and where are mere details

Now I've said that watch me struggle to make any date for the next month

Perry, go to your GP.

They know more than the internet (usually ) and if it's a long term issue they will refer you to a NHS physio who will know their stuff...
