Pearl's Generic Talk

An easy way to tell would be for Pearl to run till he cant run no more and see if he he gets headache after.

I used to get headaches too. I found that eating things with sugar in them after the ride helped. I also now use an electrolyte drink in one of my bottles. Coffee after a ride always worked but its the worst recovery drink (diuretic). So no more coffee...😡

Hey Pearl, could it be a fit issue on the bike? In relation to the neck strain thing mentioned.

I can tell you that Pearl is roughly the same height and build as me (although I may have 15-20 lbs on him) But the few times I jumped on his bike, I felt like I was riding a kid's bike.

My bike has a shorter stem and lower than most bikes. Helps me "paper-boy" all the turns and get mad cat1-aero-like. I'm not really having neck strains or anything. I feel like my fit wouldn't be an issue, but I also don't know jack about fitment. I got schooled on saddle height a while ago, but that is about it. :hmmm:

The only time I run is if the police are behind me or up a hill 😉

It WILL catch up with you 😀 My diet consisted of over eating complete garbage at every meal (pretty much still is...) and I was always super thin. Then I hit about 24 or 25 and all of the sudden 15 pounds showed up 🙄

For me is was 26. I graduated college, 5'8" and 135lbs and then 25lbs just showed up over night. Too much beer I surmised, but then I drank a lot of beer in college too.
 
pearl, might have just been heat induced headache... it has been hot lately


another thing you need to worry about is your knees blowing out...

riding behind you i notice a massive inward kink of your knees - that's gonna wear the cartlidge out at a faster rate

I wouldn't worry about it until you start to notice some kind of discomfort from it. As far as riding is concerned, you just want to make sure you cleat position is not irritating the movement. Likely, there isn't anything you can do unless you want to do surgery for the he'll of it.
 
martin do you have a doctor you would recommend for my cartilage? i want to have NJ's finest look after my knees
 
nope, i feel like young stallion, but now you have me all worried that i could lose my knees like a old man from vietnam
