I think my ankle is healed and where did Ryder's go?
2 things: 1) yay i think my ankle is healed, i was supposed to be off of it for 4 weeks (ending later this week) but i went for a short ride today and had no pain whatsoever! may hit some easy trails this week
2) what happened to the ryder's thread, i enjoyed it much, my guess is it got closed if someone knows how it ended could you let me know? it was entertaining and i'm curious

1a) well no pain per se, but it felt awkward and weak, and i mostly pushed with my non-injured foot. but no pain is a good improvement over lots of pain..

Who told you to have 4 weeks off and also how much of those four weeks off have you had? I say this because you really do not want to put stress on your ankle before it is healed, it may feel normal but it will probably be weaker than you think. What have you actually done to it?
I say this from experience, I spent a couple months on crutches after my ankle was repaired after breaking/crushing/tearing bones and ligaments. I now use an ankle brace at all times, it is noticeably weaker on the sports fild but everyday use it feels exactly the same. Just don't let yourself fall into the trap of thinking all is fine when it isnt.

I had that with my ankle as well...the bone was heeled up but all the ligaments wear stretched so it felt really weak. It could be the same thing in your case...if it is just put a tensor on and go ride some easier trails

They probably threatened to sue Joe for providing a place where people could speak freely & frankly about them & their bogus lawsuit

Anyways just be careful think smart you know the usual. Just don't do anything stupid. if you do go riding bring a cell phone or something you might need it.
