Thanks Terry! I did Yoga today to try to stretch myself out some. My hubby thinks I may be tensing up too much -- I'll concentrate on relaxing. I don't have a chiropractor -- I've never been to one. There is a massage therapist at my gym & although I've never received a professional massage, I may be visiting him soon. I have been stretching my hands out regularly while I ride. I think I need to get out of my neighborhood -- I've been doing most of my rides in there on a 1.2 mile loop. I cross 2 4-way stops and have to brake each time. There are also brick pavers at the 4-way stops that rattle my body to death when I cross them.
