I attended my first track clinic last night and had a blast. Dove right in and felt like I held my own with the more experienced riders.

My biggest concern, which also held me back from getting on the track, are my knees. They aren't injured but the left one makes some clicks when bending it. Doctor checked it out and said all was okay. However, due tongue nature of track bikes, I was concerned riding a fixed gear drive train could irritate my joints/knees.

So, my question is this: What pedaling/riding (and stopping) technique can I employ to be efficient and take the most amount of undue stress off of my knees?
