Recumbents are great. I bought it a few years back when i ruptured my L5, I coudn't ride a regular bike and of course running was not an option. I ended up using it all the time since my knees have been problematic for a few years. It's very comfortable. If you go into any excercise shop, you will find them. This AM the swelling is down a bit and I am walking without a cane, there is still a bit of fliud around the knee and it makes a nasty sound when it shifts around when bending it. I am hitting the bike today. I walked another .25 miles twice with my dog. Dogs are the best motivators for recovery or excercise, they need to be excercised regardless of the weather or how you feel, plus they are so much fun you just don't mind.
