Doesn't confuse me at all! Squeezing them brakes for a mile or more, that HURTS after a while! I don't think a girl can survive a longer hill...Originally Posted by Jiffer
I wonder why your forearms would hurt so much going downhill? I wonder if you need a bike adjustment or if you just have to let your arms get stronger by doing more downhills. Do you have any ideas because this truly puzzles me!

Yeah, you can. I did 18 miles downhill a couple weeks ago, but it took a while (days) before my hands weren't so sore. Originally Posted by Kano

downhill survival...
Good to know! And yeah, long straight hills that would otherwise be delightful with cars and intersections, or GARBAGE TRUCKS that keep stopping every few feet! Originally Posted by mimitabby
