    Bummer dude, sorry to hear, but good to see you are getting back on the bike so to speak.

    Same thing happened to me down the gorge one morning when I was a bit younger. Car slammed on the brakes suddenly, I had two options, do the same thing and hope to stop short (my reactions were delayed due to daydreaming and lack of attention) or swing wide and hope to miss.

    I took the latter option and fucked it up, smashed into the rear tail light and flew across two lanes, with my head a meter away from a recently stopped cage tyre. Lucky me, and you from the sounds of it.

    Ouch. Completely torn or just ripped? I guess you won't really know without arthroscopy or MRI, though.

    Like Sparky Bills, I've been there too. Partial tears Medial and Collateral, complete rupture of ACL, partial of PCL.

    Hurts like hell, from what I recall. The hardest thing about lateral ligament damage is they make you wear a cast for a while (well they did for me) and your leg is about the size of your lower arm when it comes off.

    Take the time to heal and get back to physio as quick as you can. I did the laterals first, came back to rugby after three months, but it wasn't enough time and the Cruciates took the brunt of it - I needed a full reconstruction which is a bitch to recover from and still gives me gip on left corners when I try to hang off - the knee just doesn't really like to support the weight when it's bent.

    So put your feet up, forget about the bike for a few days - you've got some help at home, haven't you?
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.
