After a couple of weeks with dealing with general knee pain and hearing horror stories about the long term effects of having part of the meniscus removed, I had my doctor schedule an MRI of my knee to find out what sort of deal I was looking at. And I got “good” news.No ligament damage, no soft tissue damage, and all the cartiledge is intact. GREAT! However I have a small impact fracture on the base of my femur. So technically I have been walking around with a broken knee this past month. Which at this point, all I do is wait since the break is mostly healed. But that means no long term side effects. And I can do what I ever I am comfortable with at this point. Yippy! Still gotta see why I had remote pain in my knee and swelling in different areas then where the fracture actually is. But I get to go ride next week with my cousins, I am so stoke

But I get to go ride next week with my cousins, I am so stoked! I will be hitting up the Michigan resorts which have over a 4ft base. That is more then we have in Colorado. I can only imagine the looks I am going to get rolling up in a big SUV with 4 boards strapped to the roof and Colorado license plates They are going to look at me like I am crazy! So, some bad news ended up being good news. Riding season resumes next week for me, woo hoo!
