  1. Ok so i live in the west island in montreal, so during the winter i cant
    go out unicycling cuz there is too much snow, and in october, (the last
    month for unicycling), i badly injured my knee and now it is feburary
    and it really sucks cuz i miss unicycling and i think i may have lost
    my touch, plus on top of that i still don't have the strength in my
    knee to push down on the pedal. I miss my unicycle ever so dearly.

    It does suck; five years ago I was out for three months from a broken
    heel. Last summer I did something that irritated my knee that stayed
    with me the rest of the season. I'm currently strengthening around the
    knee in anticipation of upcoming riding season.

    You'll get your touch back in time; I'd spend the time getting the
    strength and condition back before getting back on too soon and
    re-injuring the knee.

  3. Hey Crunchy! We have the same stuff here in Ottawa... but look on the
    bright side... only 3 more weeks and the pavement starts to show up
    again and you'll be riding up and down Mount Royal!!

    I've accepted this as something that will inevitably happen to me now
    and again. Out of 7 months of riding, about 3 of those have been taken
    up by knee injuries. 😄

    Eric in Sask is, I think, the expert in winter driving. Any
    physiotherapists out there?

  7. Sorry about the bad knee crunchy, hope it heals and your up and about
    again.

    I'd hate to be off my unicycle for any length of time.

    Be well soon.
