I had my bike fit well so I know that its not the bike. I'm SURE it has to do with the shear terror I feel when riding at times. Still trying to get used to the new shoes/pedals. But you're right - I need to relax more.

I'm the marketing director here so thankfully I'm not on Autocad - but I am on the computer all day - more typing than moving my mouse around though.

I have NO core strength at all. So its a good reminder for me to try to strengthen my core and that that will help. I'm in a pickle with money and can't afford a PT at the moment - but these suggestions will help - I hope!

I do smile alot when I ride because I love it so much - but I probably don't breath as much as I should and I certainly don't relax! I'm hoping the fear factor will dissipate one of these days.
