Thank you all for the encouragement and kind words, it helps a lot. I find the wind trainer very tedious, and I have weeks to go on it, so any little bit helps.
30 minutes in the morning and 30 in the evening yesterday, each followed by 30 minutes of icing. I did some short intervals to keep it from being too tedious, but I have to be really careful about loading angles b/c of the meniscus tear so they are not tough intervals, just enough to make me sweat and breathe pretty hard. The knee was a bit achey last night so I cut it to twenty minutes for this morning's ride. I am walking without the brace now, it feels pretty steady.
I watched some technical diving videos this morning before training, eyes on the prize.
