Rode it for the first time in nearly 5 weeks 
Only a 15 minute spin to see how I cope, and was ok, but don't reckon I could do much distance just yet. It was fairly uncomfortable on the knee towards the end of that. I could shift back a bit on the seat to relieve it somewhat, or dangle the leg straighter for a bit when not cornering, but needs more time before I can do something like, for instance, test ride a Street Triple :b
However, after an outpatients appt. at the trauma clinic today, doc has just signed me off for 3 more weeks
Double-edged sword though, as I'm climbing the walls already, and don't expect a lot of great biking weather now.
