  1. I'm 55 and have developed some mild knee-cap pain riding my
    hybrid to and from work. I'm looking into adjusting the bike
    fit, nsaids, stretching, knee specific exercise, etc., but
    wonder if those knee support bands that I've occasionally
    seen but never paid attention to would help. Has anyone got
    experience with these? Where do you get them?

    Thanks!

    What sort of pain and where on the knee? It could be
    something simple.

    It's a very mild ache just under the knee-cap. The pain
    doesn't bother me so much - it's the new clicking noises
    that I've never had before and the tightened feeling in my
    quads and gastros that bothers me as much as anything.

    These Cho-Pat straps help when the patella isn't tracking
    correclty in its slot. My knee clicks from time to time when
    I cross my legs and uncross them. My ortho doc says that a
    click sound in the knee is always the knee cap.
