Girlfriend had the suggestion of trying some yoga as we can do it in the flat (and do it for free via Youtube) and my knee pain has pretty much disappeared completely after a few nights. I used to stretch before and after a ride, but doing yoga stretching is a lot more controlled and has seemed to have done the trick for now. Not saying it'll be for everyone, but might be worth giving it a bash to see what happens.
I am a qualified yoga instructor. Sadly yoga can't heal the tear in my cartilage or remove the cycsts in my knee. However yoga can be used to strengthen and stabilise the knee joint and to help improve range of movement too.
