Hi guys and girls,
I am new to the site and couldn't wait to fire that first post to you all. I need your help. First i will start by saying the following: I have been riding for years as an "average commuter rider", and never paid any attention to training, gear, nutrition, etc.
This year however, I was inspired to take cycling to a new level and been bit by the cycling bug. After having my first serious bike stolen early this year, I felt it was an incentive for me to take the plunge and purchase a Specialized Allez, then clothing, etc. Been training for about 8 months. I go out everyday and try to do 30 miles minimum, and on my weekends try to do 50 miles rides.
On one of my recent loner rides I met this older rider and he told me I ride a little sideways, and that my right knew sorta pop out to the side on my down strokes. I always thought something was wrong before i met him and tried playing around with my seat set-up without any results. Now that I know what the problem is, thanks to this experienced rider, I have been "self medicating" and trying different things.I might be going about it all wrong because I feel pain where there was no pain before. Any thoughts?
