  • Extensive exam by physio today culminating in pain free low cadence high power through a taped knee. Diagnosis - asymmetric musculature pulling knee cap out of kilter. Treatment - tape, exercises and IT roller. Can ride low load high cadence.

  • Hmmm, any chance you can describe what the pain was and where it was hurting? I've got a problem at the moment on the outside of my kneecap, from top to bottom, and I think it's ligament based as I've had loads of problems with that knee in the past.

    Just seen this. The one thing I learnt from this is it's very unwise to self diagnose. I was convinced from all my research that I had patella tendonitis. I didn't. £45 for a decent physio exam, tape and exercises to correct. Had I self diagnosed I'd have sacked my season and needlessly lost heaps of fitness.
