So I've never had knee complaints before (I'm 37).
But yesterday I undertook a 100 mile cycle. After about 50/60 miles I started to get a sort of hot pain in both knees, almost "in front" of the knees. This didnt get constantly worse, but sort of peaked at a 6 in pain and continued for the rest of the ride (very annoying).
When I finished and got home, going from sitting to standing was agony ! So I popped 2 Ibuprofen and within 45 mins I couldn't feel any pain at all. and Today I can hardly feel anything at all either. All gone all better.
So what is going on here? I can't say I've ever had that before but it is rather worrying. I mean it was pretty bad, do you you think it could be a bike fit issue? I mean I have had this bike for over a year and commute on it at least 8 times a week. I've never had a knee problem before. I run also and have never had knee trouble running.
I did recently get new cycling shoes but they have felt great so far.
