My build has been put on hold...

Well this sucks I have to put my plans on hold for a while. I managed to tare the cartledge in my knee. So now I can't be standing for a long time. I guess I will just have to keep buying parts till I can start doing some work.

Re: My build has been put on hold...

Yeah the only problem with that is I have to take it apart so I can clean and paint the chassis. I am sure I can find a few things I can get done in my gimpy status.

Re: My build has been put on hold...

How did you hurt the knee? And don't tell us you slipped in the shower! I ride dirt bikes and it seems all my riding buddies have trashed a knee or both, me included, but I haven't gotten it fixed, torn ACL.

I was always afraid of that while I was racing MX. I didn't do my knee until after I sold my bike. I was working on my darn truck when it happened...go figure

Re: My build has been put on hold...

I played baseball for 17 years including college and semi-pro ball. I was a catcher for all 17 years so my knees were trashed from that, but I had never torn anything. So anyway I jumped down off a tire rack at work, about 3 feet high, and it popped. I wish I had some exciting story but thats it.
