Okay, don't read this if you do not like female bodily functions, but I am wondering if any other women my age (41) ever experience, mostly after a bumpy hard ride, bloody discharge? It is usually very short, maybe one bathroom trip per ride, and then does not occur again - until the next hard ride.

I've been riding for about 3 years and have never had this experience except over the last 6 months or so. I know menopause is right around the corner, and the amount of blood is not alarming (not compared to my regular cycles, geez!), but I was just curious if any other women experienced this.
