So you have already finished cycling because Millar`s suspension?Just joking..El Loto said:In 2002 It was the holidays so i was stying up late watching TV. The highlights of the second week of the Tour came on and i became intersted because David Millar won a stage and he was Scottish like my self.
Sorry to change the topic but where abouts are you leg pains?dice2833 said:Last year (2003) I had some terrible leg pain, that my chiro said was because I "didn't stretch my legs enough." So, I took up cycling as a way to get rid of my pain. I started riding with a local club, and did easy rides.
I came across a coach from the local team (DICE), and he got me hooked up with their winter training, and I started racing in April of 2004, and haven't been able to stop.
The bad part of the story is that my leg pains are still as bad as ever...stupid chiro! Sucking up all my money, just to lie to me!
My leg pains are in my right thigh. Mostly the outer part of the right thigh. I have noticed that it does get worse when I don't do any movement...after i sleep. I am now beginning to think that it might be something to do with the circulation in my leg, but that also doesn't really make sence since riding needs lots of circulation, and it doesn't hurt from riding.rayner said:Sorry to change the topic but where abouts are you leg pains?
rayner said:Always liked riding my bike, was on a trike when I was about three. In Australia each state has an Institute of sport who look after the elite up and coming athletes. Competitive cycling was struggling a little bit here so they included cycling in a talent search program that all high schools in tassie have to take part in. We had to do a few tests like vertical leap, shuttle run, 40m sprint etc. I was lucky enough to be chosen as one of the 8 cyclists that year. We were given a coach and a bike on a bond deal (pay $ get $back when u give bike back job). Havent stopped since.
