I flicked myself off a 125 race bike at 110 and ruined my knee with sideways cartwheels and some pelvis kicking exploits , i waited 4 years to get it seen, cos im hard/ stupid/ was young, the waiting time at the point 3/4 ish years ago was just shy of 5 months from being referred to an exploration op and a clean up of all the mangled cartlidge, which was the size of a golf ball behind my serated knee cap, I still have to go back and have the cruciates sorted, possible reconstruction with bits of dead people, but im still too fat for him to be happy to do it lol, although my girlfriends brother had his knee done about a year ago and he only waited 3 months, i cant remember what he had done but it was quite serious as they just cut a huge hole in the side of his leg to fix it.
