Aww, thank you Indysteel and Oakleaf. I already feel better. It's nice to know that there are people who really care and are concerned. But then, would we expect any less from TE'ers?

Melatonin to sleep is great. Its a hormone your body naturally produces so its non habit forming. Also, about an hour before a bike ride try a fiber one bar, they are amazingly good and keep you full and fueled for your bike ride!

Sport Legs?
Has anyone tried the Sportlegs supplement? Just wondering if it helps move the lactic acid out quicker.
Update: I'm sleeping less and I'm cycling more.

Sundial,
I think there was a thread last summer regarding Sportlegs. You might want to read it before you purchase a bottle.Marcie

update
The pendulum has swung the other way and I'm sleeping 7 hours now.
I've found that taking 800 mg ibuprofen with a Boost right after a ride seems to help me recover quicker. Also, will probably add CoQ10 to help relieve muscle fatigue. With the warmer days my arthritis is better and I'm riding LOTS. Just wanted to say thank you for the well wishes. I'm feeling better.
