well it gets better. I've really been off anything much because the aches and pains would keep coming back. Yeah, I rode some.

This spring I started back and I felt so "off" on the bike. Asymmetrical. My right foot pointed down more than my left and I felt like I needed to shift my butt off the right hand side of the seat to be comfortable.

I finally went to the sports doc to have a suspicion confirmed.

My right lower leg is one cm shorter than the left. OTOH, my left thigh is also a bit shorter. The hips end up straight again but that's why the PTs never saw a thing.
It seems logical as well, why I would have all my problems in the "shorter" leg. It needs to reach further down to reach the pedal = less training and f*็%ed up tibialis anterior muscle.


I now ride fairly comfortably with about 1cm lift under my right cleat and the cleat moved a good bit back. This only really works with my mtn. shoes, the road cleats don't move back far enough. But I have mtn. pedals on the one road bike, and if all else fails the other will get them too.

Problem is - i'm only even when seated and not when I stand up.


Maybe someone has some ideas how to perfect this setup?
