My knee is still pretty stiff today, but seems to be improving...
I've been icing it, and hoping with all my might it will be healed in a week.
I am very encouraged by those of you that do fine by just taking it easy and not avoiding the bike altogether.
I really don't want to have to stay off it for too long...I just started riding long distances!
I also don't want to permanently injure myself...so I will be careful!
Thanks for all the info and advice!
