    It's not the size of the calf, it's what you do with it ;-)

    Happy~biker,

    you didn't say if you rode the day before? I cramp if I:
    don't warm up first
    don't cool down after, spin the last few miles or last bit of a ride flushes out lactic acid I think
    don't spin/that is if I mash big gears
    and/or don't stay hydrated properly fed before/during and after.

    I especially notice it if I don't get enough potassium

    OY, this sport is so complicated. good thing there's TE, eh?

    Lots of threads around here and help about nutrition
