Torn ACL's and How to= Bikes

RE: What causes ACL injury?


Eagle,

I am not a medical professional at all, just experianced with "Ouch, tore my ACL." I ride bikes in my off time and have seen many times when you get "thrown" or bottom on a rise an injury like this happens. And no I am not talking about a pedel bike. I have seen quite a few pretty bad scrapes and injuries come from riding WFO on the trails.

After your time under the knife if pusue a sport like mine I would seriously think about investing in a good set of braces. Asterisk makes the best on the planet for about $550usd, but they will save your behind, if you ride.

PS. Good luck with the surgury.
