Sorry I forgot to mention it here.

My goal is to get my fat levels down and work on building general fitness and hopefully completing a century sometime in the future.

I shouldn't be feeling that much discomfort on a 230 km ride.

25mile isn’t as far as i can go as im sure i can go much further, i use to cycle alot when i was younger but i suffered a patella tendon rupture and couldn’t cycle anymore, hence the knee issues/concern. My core and triceps are simply sore from not being used to that type of exercise. I wouldn't call myself unfit but i know i no where near some people.

That being said I feel fine today, no aches and pains at all and commuting in today was fine no probs, I posted this thread about half hour after I got back from the 25 mile ride.
