Take it easy nebill. The worst thing a cyclist can do is overdo it and do permanent damage to the old knee.
Know what you mean about physiotherapy tho'. I had a bad motorbike accident 3 or 4 years ago and part of my treatment was an exercise cycle in the hospital.
The first time they put me on it (about a month after getting my metalwork put in my ankle and lower leg) the physio said "You might find this a bit difficult."
Boy you should have seen her face as I rattled up the cadence!
Stick with it guy. It might be a bit frustrating not to do as much as you used to but it'll be worth it in the end.
