Subject: Outside of leg pain while cycling Hi All,
I just wanted to see if anyone has had something similar that they could recommend a preventative idea or two.
I have just started in the past month trying to establish a base line of fitness to make my first attempt at a sprint and hopefully olympic triathlon in 2016. However, recently on my bike rides of about 10 - 14 miles, I experience pain the next day on the outside of my knee going down into my calf. It feels like it may be a tendon. Sometimes it is in both legs and sometimes just one. I'm not sure if this is just a sore muscle or if I am doing something incorrect that will lead to an injury. Any thoughts?
Unfortunately I don't have clip in pedals, I just have pedals with cages on them. That may be the problem, but I'm trying my best to keep costs down at the moment.
Thanks again!
