I am a 40 yo road cyclist who does charity rides.
The first thing that hurts when I ride a "longer" ride is my shoulders. I'm pretty sure my bike is properly fitted - - so let's just ignore that possibility for now.
I think I ride with my shoulders up by my ears a little bit. When I concentrate on dropping my shoulders, this helps. But I have tried for months to get in that habit and always go back to hunching if I stop concentrating.
I think I need to strengthen some back muscles. Any ideas on what exercise to try?
