Not sure about YOUR knee injury, but I know that with mine, running/walking are a lot harder on it than biking... I'm bike commuting every day (8.5 miles each way) and my endurance and speed on the bike are improving steadily... but walking any decent distance still hurts it and makes it swell.

As far as my injury goes... my primary care doctor says I've got some damage to the menescus, the ACL has a tear, and the PCL looks like it PROBABLY has a tear. Still haven't seen ortho for it yet... damn waiting lists.
