Hey KnottedYet, my road shoes are Specialized BG Torch Women's... So do they already have the medial wedge in them?

When my dad found out about my knee, he told me about an old PT exercise his doctor gave him way back when. And no joke, as soon as I did the exercise, my knee felt better. Woke up the next day feeling great! I'm icing the knee too, and putting on arnica cream.

Basically the exercise is this: sit on the edge of a chair, extend your leg, and lift it higher than the height of a coffee table. Do 3 reps of 10. Once that is easy, add some weights. I obviously haven't added weights at this point, but I can do the 3 reps fine. Doing a 2 week rest period and then see how it is. Then some time afterwards, I will go pay the big bucks and get another bike fitting.

I will keep you ladies posted. Your responses really encouraged me. I seriously thought I'd have to sell my bike. Guess you don't realize how liberating biking is until you are faced with the possibility of not doing it any more. My life wouldn't end, and things would be fine. But still, I'd miss it terribly.
