    I'm 55 and just getting started with biking since I was a teenager. But I have been running for the past 3 years. . . Nice to meet you all.

    Does anyone else here use more pain relievers than before? I feel like I need an Advil after every ride, just to relieve shoulder and neck fatigue/aches.

    What is causing your shoulder and neck fatigue and aches? Is it that your bike doesn't fit you properly, or that your position is not good (putting all your weight on your hands, arms, shoulders) because you are not engaging your core or you don't have the core strength to hold yourself up? Seems like figuring that out will help you relieve the cause of the pain, and then you won't have to take the painkillers.
