[QUOTE="Yamaholley, post: 147158, member: 24096"] Sharla, see my post for info in the women's forum....but I really wanted to emphasize, even though lots of others have: don't be so HARD on yourself! It sounds like you are your own worst enemy...and believe me, I know! I didn't start riding again till I was almost 36, and then I immediately tore my ACL and had to have surgery on it. I also heard a 'popping' sound (over the wide open throttle on my bike), and I did a complete somersault in the air (stupid log was in my way!) My leg was completely useless as well, so I had to have my b/f start my bike, and put my leg over the seat so I could ride it out of the woods. It was my right knee, so I couldn't use the back brake, not a good thing in the woods :) anyway, it swelled up to approx the size of a honeydew melon, and I couldn't walk on it. Whatever you did, be sure and take it very easy till the swelling goes down. If you can get to a Dr, I'd sure do it soon. You'll probably have to have an MRI, so you'll want to wait till the insurance is working for that. I thought I'd never ride again, but I am, and thinking seriously about competing .....so I know you'll be back on the bike. If I can do it, ANYONE can! email me if you want to talk! [/QUOTE]
