LONG BIKE RIDES-
Especially in drops-bent over
Dehydrated
Plus you folks are middle aged and older
Surprised it isn't more common
Shorter rides-stop every 15-20 minutes.
Don't ride BENT OVER- increases pressure in veins-dilates them
Lots of fluids
take aspirin if you can tolerate it.
Serena Williams had a SERIOUS PROBLEM-DVT- and pulmonary embolism- maybe related to air travel very fit people do get DVT-
It would be interesting to do a quick survey-
to see just how many DVT cases here-especially distance and drops use
