Subject: sore hamstring Hello,
I bought a new tri bike about 6 weeks ago (Specialized Shiv Elite ) and noticed my left hamstring continues to get sore every time I ride. At first, I thought it might be due to my legs getting adjusted to the new bike, but this shouldn't be the case after 6 weeks. In fact, the hamstring seems to be getting sorer as time goes by
A little more information: I'm pretty new to biking; I usually ride 3 times a week, flat terrain, 1 to 3 hrs each ride; I'm in decent shape, 6' and 185lbs; Age = 40; no hamstring problem when swimming or running; I rarely stretch and have never been a particularly limber guy; I got a bike fit when I bought the bike and other than the hamstring the bike feels comfortable.
I'm not sure if it is related to the bike fit, an unnoticed injury that occurred around the same time, or something else. Any ideas?
Thanks,
