My much planned Long Ride across the Nullarbor next week has been
postponed.
I’ve been trying to rehabilitate my right knee for several months and
everything was going fine, until I spent a few hours at the beach the other
day. Being over 40, and thinking I’m
still a teenager, I went down to the beach with my daughter and pulled out the
boogie boards…bad move.
Everything was going fine and we were having fun until I was dumped by a
wave. After the wave passed, I stood up, only to have my right leg slip into a
hole. The pain wasn’t too bad and I
continued as if nothing had happened. We
went back to our unit and it was then that the pain started. Next morning, my knee was swollen and the
pain intense.
Ice packs, rest and beer took care of the pain, but I’m going to have to
postpone my long ride until after I see the specialist and finally get this
knee sorted out…
