[RC] Sore Ankles - Michelle Aquilino - Kitley, Carrie E Civ USAF AFSPC 30 MDSS/SGSLF

I had that problem after the Fire Mountain ride.  I raised my stirrups
up one notch.  Haven't had that problem since.  Something about all
those LONG gradual downhills and me standing a slight bit on my toes in
the stirrups for so long wreaked havoc on the tendons in my ankles.
Change your pads and raise the stirrups a bit and see if that helps.
Carrie


More randomness from Michelle =)? My ankles have started bothering me
more in the last few weeks.? My shins are also sensitive, and have been
starting to bother me as well.? My ankles are not rolling, just start to
really hurt after riding for a while.? I was going to email RC and see
if anyone else has experience with having bad ankles =P? My ankles have
typically been rather strong, I've never sprained my ankle my whole
life, but recently they've been really bothering me.? I just had a
thought before I wrote this though, that maybe I just need to change the
pad in my ez-rides?? Any other thoughts?? Thanks!? -Michelle
