+1.

Also, are you riding with your heels up or down? I was told by a cyclist much more experienced than I that keeping your heels "up" while pedaling can lead to the symptoms you describe. Apparently, you should keep your heels "down" at all times (as much as is possible anyway. Works the backsides of your legs nicely on the upstroke if you really concentrate on doing it). Hard for me to remember and every now and then I have to think about it, but I already have knee problems (IT band) so I don't want to tick off my Achilles either.
