THE MONDAY AFTER A RACE DAY

I woke up this morning and my right hip was locked up! No amount of stretching seemed to work. After hobbling around the house for a while, my wife demanded that I see Dr. Mike. I'm not positive if her reasoning was her concern for my well being or if she just wanted me to stop whining Either way I went, and am glad I did. Any of you sore riders out there, I recommend Q.C. Wellness and Rehab in Moline, IL. Great people, and Dr. Mike doesn't look at you like your nuts when you explain why you feel this way. "You carry your bike up what"? Doc also confirms every time I go there that I have ZERO flexibility! This has to be addressed in the off season. I'm no fan of going to yoga classes, but me just doing hurdle stretches in my living room is not cutting it. By the way I asked my 9 yr old if he was sore after yesterdays races and he said "NO". I think he's just saying that to make me feel older than I am. Everyone have a great week and see you on the start line at Jingle Cross. Ty
