My question is why are my elbows sore? Is it because of my new riding position with the drop handlebars and my body is not used to it? They aren't so sore that they are killing me but I feel the soreness if I stretch my arms out straight. Maybe someone here has some thoughts. Thanks ahead of time
im4smiley you might want to get yourself a copy of Andy Pruitt's Complete Medical Guide for Cyclists. Its got stacks of good info on bike fit and it discusses remedies for pain associated with cycling. Im fairly new to cycling and found this book very informative.

Hope you sort out the elbow pain soon.
