[RC] re: Sore Ankles - Michelle Aquilino - Michelle AquilinoHa ha, my body sucks...? If my stirrups are too short, that aggravates me knees ;-)? I may try one notch, we'll see...? May also need new leathers, they might not be 100% even right now, but I will be looking into a new saddle possibly after my next ride, so won't get anything quite yet...? Thanks! =)-- "Don't breed or buy while shelter animals die" __________ From: "Kitley, Carrie E Civ USAF AFSPC 30 MDSS/SGSLF" <carrie.kitley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [RC] Sore Ankles - Michelle Aquilino 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
