I've torn both of my calves at different times,
what causes cramps now while on rides, dehydration, lack of electrolites, vitamins or stretching, all of the above? Most of the time it is little tingy cramps, I am trying to prevent a bad cramp, when I'm 40 miles from home need to get back.
After long or hard rides, they can be sore in the spots that were torn, for a day or two. I've been increasing my long weekend ride by 10 miles every other weekend (50 miles Saturday), plus 2 or 3 , 25-30 mile rides during the week.
