Not that I don't think they're helpful or have had bad experiences or whatever, I'm just stubborn. If it's all swollen, painful, or movement is limited in the morning I'll probably go see one.

Sounds like a plan. If you tore something you'd sure as hell know about it ;)

if you have the means to (insurance and whatnot) I'd suggest go anyway and have them put you through the ringer; but then again I am severely anal retentive, especially when it comes to my mobility

those 4 months there were easily the biggest pain in the ass experience of my life ;)

fuck fuck fuck. I need help from doctors in here, most specifically Aaron since he just went through this (and Peng?). I hurt my knee today in kickball. I was rounding second when the ball got in faster than I expected and planted my feet to turn back but my right leg didn't rotate and my knee went left as my body was going back right and got bent sideways. I heard a small pop (obvious danger sign), but it wasn't excruciating pain. I laid there for a minute trying to figure out what was what, and surprised that it didn't hurt more and I could move it pretty well. I got up and walked off slowly. I can walk ok on it and can bend it fully both backward and forward. It's only when I have any inward motion with the knee does it sting. I got ice on it right away and have been on/off with that. Swelling isn't much if any. I've heard that people know when they tear ACL/MCL/etc., but I'm not sure. It doesn't really feel like it but I dunno. The pop I heard scares me, but most of the feelings I get are that it's just a sprain/hyperextension and I've heard pops on my ankles before and they've just been sprains. The pain feels kinda under the inside edge of my kneecap.

I've injured myself plenty before but have always just felt annoyed/frustrated that I'd miss sport time or whatever. But I've never hurt a knee before so this is uncharted territory and kinda scary to me. I know that go see a doctor would be a first response but I don't really like them.

Just sucks that I have a basketball game tomorrow and I can't play because of dumb kickball. It's like what's his name from the NFL who missed a couple games because he fell getting out of the shower or whatever.

You get pain when you move your LEG inward or try to bend your KNEE inward?

I good way to test, sit down and elevate your leg, have someone press on your knee to keep it from moving and puch on your foot, outside to inside with a little pressure, and vice versa.

If you feel unbearable pain or your leg actually bends more than 1/4" or so get your LCL looked at, as it's probably slightly torn.

When i try to bend my knee inwards. It's a bit stiff this morning.

Its my Friday!!!!! I LOVE my Friday!!!!! Haha.biggrin.gif

But I have court tomarrow.unsure.gif

I am a bit sore today. Managed a 28mi jaunt yesterday. I have just matched my motorcycling numbers for the past three years in 8 days of pedalling.

Feeling good?

What are the best value external hard drives out right now? (500GB-1TB Range)

Not looked in forever. I am a huge fan of buying an enclosure and the drive separately. Short term it may not be quite as cost effective (used to be cheaper), but long term when you upgrade it will.

A 1TB and an enclosure should do well. I need a new pair of drives as well, so perhaps I'll look within a few days.

This is my new Trek 1.2 Super fun bike :) Hitting 30 mph on flat land on a bicycle is sweet! :lol:

Also got this bike for free this weekend! It's a ton of fun just to put around the yard at my home in Baytown considering the roads aren't as great. I also have a run/ride coming up that I needed a mountain bike for and I think this will do the trick.

This is for my dad, and he's just looking for a plug and play thing. I got my Seagate 320 that I like but was thinking about going USB 2.0 powered

When did you pick up the 1.2?

Heres my "beast". IT needs a fresh coat of FLAT Black this year, and I will probably be building a tube front bumper and full roll cage.smile.gif

Yes. Was way more sore last night. :)

Tired though. My body needed some repair rest. Perhaps drinking a bottle of wine wasn't the best idea last night, but damnit I deserved it :P

You didn't ask but, when going out pedaling something that can really help you recover FAST is drinking something like "Endurox R4". I used to mountain bike for several hours at a time, and it made a HUGE difference in recovery time by getting in the nutrients right after a long cycle session. I was pretty prone to cramping though, so YMMV. For me and the guys I pedaled with it was night and day.

I like a 2:1 sugar:protein a bit more, but what ever works. Most bikers love endurox. I used to buy powdered bulk aminos, powder cross filter, ionized mega broken down whey and dextrose and mix my own drink for pedaling. Always added in vitamin C and then a banana later.

After a while I got really lazy though and would mix OJ and yogurt. Ot a banana and protein powder + water. Anyway to get sugar, vitamin C and potasium, and simple sugar ASAP.

I think the home brew worked the best but it would always make me insanely hungry(I desired that effect at the time though). With the other 2 options I felt I got the same results, but the smoothy made me have less appetite.

Vitamin C, potasium, and sugar is the real key. The protein was really good too but not as important.

All good info, What do you eat/drink before cycling?
