I got some SPD shoes and pedals. I have done one regular ride with them so far, sunday, and noticed that I got a lot more power. The pedaling is awkward, but I will get used to it. I can work a lot more muscles.

When I was pedaling I felt tension in my knee pretty much the whole time. Though, what was a bit alarming was after I got home and got off the bike. What I felt going up the stairs here was about the same as I felt last December, just in my bum knee. I had a good workout at the therapy session I had Thursday so my legs were worked up from that still, then the ride was on top of it. The muscle soreness was to be expected and thats all I felt in my good leg.

My therapist didn't seem to be concerned with it when I brought it up today. Its a big change that I am not used to, for sure. To have such a big difference from one leg to the other just seems really strange/weird to me...

Any thoughts?
