Message: [QUOTE="fmfkx125372, post: 171759, member: 21653"] FC - I feel your pain. I popped my ACL 9 weeks ago. Totally popped it off the bone. The thing swelled up like a monster so fast, I thought my boot straps were gonna blow! Well, I have been riding my mountain bike for about a week now, on the road mind you, and it feels about 70%. What everyone is saying is so true. The more you work out, the better off you will be. I can literally feel every morning I go out and ride that it is stronger. You sound exactly like me, I try so dang hard, and get so frustrated. I too keep getting banged up, just last year I cracked a vertebrae in my back! I now am trying to look at riding a different way. I am just going to be happy to be out there, and try and have a good time. Just try and appreciate being able to be free and ride, that's what it's all about! Good luck with the recovery. I hope your doc is right about your ACL being ok...:cool: [/QUOTE]
