After a recent event, my right knee has started to sound like an ungreased bearing, it has always clicked a lot but now it is noisy too. I haven't any pain just the usual ache after doing a long ride (150k or so).
I went to the quack and she referred me to a sports injury physio in cork as apparently cyclists only use one side of the leg muscles a lot more than the other and suggested that he would give me exercises to build up the muscles on the other side.
I have googled this and it seems to be a common problem and not one that should warrant too much worrying. I have now joined the massive ranks of the unemployed and cannot afford the costs to see this guy, so has anyone experienced this sort of problem and can anyone offer any kind of advice?
