Knee Pain

Do you pull up on the left leg for skids? That can pull/jolt the patellar tendon pretty bad.

Nope, no skidding at all, always use my front brake

Have a good stretch of your quads & see if that helps.

Noted, will do

I suggested asking the Bike Whisperer

Yep, that's on the list. Gonna get my cleats set up properly soon anyway, so good timing

The worst thing, and this is what I did in Australia, was riding through it

Sounds like no riding for me this weekend. Think you're all right, i'll give it at least over the weekend. Sucks though, really keen to get on my road bike.

While walking in to work today, instead of my regular 6 miles, my knee was absolutely fine, just tiny bit sore but nowhere near what I felt on my bike after 25 miles last night.

Thinking about it, my knee was a touch sore after a long ride last weekend, but dissapeared through the week, just to come back again last night. So, riding don't seem to work, rest it is.

Also, from reading on here it seems like the lower back muscles have a lot to do with it, so time do some plank exercises i think.
