New Rider Needs Help!!

[DDH]

ROFLMAO, I have seen typo's but that one was great!! LOL

I'm with Lisa, I'm dieing

Seriously though, if I can get that way, I am a new rider too (since July) and congrats on the 65 miles!! I don't know what to say about the knee pain but I think the cramping sometimes is potasiam shortage, I know when I cramp in my legs if I eat a banana or drink some gatorade it usually quits. Of course I am not expert so wait for them to answer you okay.

I have a 50 mile ride coming up this weekend in Waco Tx. and I am thinking I may have bit off more than I can chew with that, so I envy you being able to do the 65 already.

Two quick knee helps to try out before you get into looking for complex physical causes too deeply: Do like Donna says- on a long ride keep sipping a drink with electrolytes. And raise your saddle height a cm or so- might help with "some" knee pains.

And do get some new shorts.

(JUST KIDDING!!!!)
