I just did a 100k training ride in montauk. Its so beautiful out here I have such a riders high right now. I have a tri on the 7th and am very excited. Got to love those endorphins. Im off to stretch or else i think my legs will pop. Oh i have a question. Why do my knees hurt after this long ride?

Congrats and good luck at your first tri.

If the front of your knee hurts, it might be that the seat is too low; if the back of the knee hurts, it could be that the seat is too high; if your knees hurt on the sides (kind of below), it could just be muscle attachments that are a bit tender from using the muscles in your upper legs; etc. You can post the knee question in the injuries and health forum. Just make sure you provide more details.

I also love those endorphins :-) What was your previous long ride? Maybe you just overdid it?

From the title of the post, I thought we were going to reminisce about the '70s and what my friends and I did during lunch in high school.

Anyway...that was a long long time ago.

Congrats on a good ride and good luck with your tri.

Remember that feeling before your race if you get nervous or expereince doubt, which is normal before an event. That feeling- that essence- is a huge part of why we all do this.

It's nice of you to share it too as it conjures up nice thoughts for all of us who read it.

Good luck on the 7th!
