[RC] side ache/rider cramp - Dawn Simas
Any advice on preventing a sideache in my abdomen when I start my ride sometimes? Or how to get it to go away? I had one at the start of the Amer. River 70 and was riding hunched over the saddle horn like a gutshot cowboy. Not fun. I'm eating a banana a day until Tevis, I heard potasium helps. Runners have told me to breathe deeply to relax the muscle. But it's hard to relax it when I use my abs to ride properly, especially at the faster pace at the start of a ride. Advice?
Thank you!
