Question:
Just wondering if anyone has had pain just in one leg and not the other. Or could this pain be from a weird jerk on my right leg as i fell, or if bad pedaling technique is to blame. (or maybe even cycling shoes that aren't rigid enough
-cheers
Description:
Hey all, been road cycling for about 4 weeks(lovin it, shed 10+lbs), but about a week ago i pulled my first noob clipless 'tip over'(thankfully out in the hills with no one around).
I fell to my left side(i usually unclip that side first and put my left food down), and i was fine from the fall, but, the next day my right heel was fairly tender. So i took a few days off, tried some seat position changes, cleat position changes, pedaling techniques, and the pain was still there in just the right achilles(left leg is perfectly fine).Unfortunately i had to do a lot of walking over the last week as well. Could this be from the fall, or is it maybe some weird ankling technique or just too much riding? i've been thinking i've been riding too hard too often with my seat too high, but after a few 20-30 minute test rides with a lower seat and cleats a adjusted my right ankle hurts even when heavily taped.
cheers
