Nellers Jul 2020 12:26pm, 16 Jul 2020 36,726 posts	0 Nellers My weekend ride is different every week but my Tuesday or Thursday mornings are, by necessity, about the same route pretty much every week. I'm only getting out a couple of times most weeks, along with 3 runs which are a bit more local. And actually I might be on a bit of hiatus for a few days. My knee is a bit sore and swollen after my ride which is a new one for me. Rest and keep an eye on it for a couple of days I think.

Either way also your check seat position for height, slope and position for and aft. You may find it's moved or as you have done more cycling your position and/or flexibility has changed. Hope it improves quickly
Rog T Jul 2020 1:30pm, 16 Jul 2020 436 posts	0 Rog T ftrobbie - is there a maximum density of flowers then? Not played seriously enough for long enough to have noticed before but was planning to up my game so may be important
ftrobbie Jul 2020 1:37pm, 16 Jul 2020 220 posts	0 ftrobbie You can only have a flower every 80m, so you can get circa 10 every halfmile. The Fetchpoint world is built on a 80m grid. Vancouver jogger and I had a discussion a while back. You need to be able to get the half mile to start in a different place every run to benefit. So living in a city I use different north south blocks to get that Route variation. In more rural settings the roads don’t always help you out
Rog T Jul 2020 1:44pm, 16 Jul 2020 437 posts	0 Rog T Thanks! I'll be paying more attention to that for sure. I suppose it'll be a sort of weighing up when it's more efficient to go elsewhere or keep watering too.
Nellers Jul 2020 1:50pm, 16 Jul 2020 36,727 posts	0 Nellers Clip-ins, FTR, but they're the same and in the same position and shoes that I've had for a while now. It's probably more about how my flexibility has changed than anything, or maybe I tweaked it running yesterday and didn't notice. Either way first order of business is to rest it and let it settle.

njosmith Jul 2020 8:59am, 17 Jul 2020 548 posts	0 njosmith It is a bit annoying when you are this close! Luckily I will go past this way on the way to a freedom parkrun so I should still get the bug before midnight UK time.
