The LBS spent a considerable amount of time with me and MY bike on a trainer working on fit. Probably 40 minutes or longer. I was centered over the cranks pretty good. I then went out and actually rode and cam back in and got it back on the trainer and made some minor adjustments. At this point I am going to leave the fit alone as I think I likely have form issues with how I am on the bike. I remember last night noticing that I slid forward and my sit bones were on the front edge of the saddle. I imagine I should slide back and they should be more in the center of the large portion of the saddle.

When I mentioned locked elbows I didn't mean straight out and locked but rather inflexible and tense. I don't get a sore neck.

I have a lot of things I need to try and pay attention to so I can answer some of the questions posed. Then I can get somewhere.

There is a lot more to riding than just making the peddles go around in circles. I've also been trying to get sued to using my clipless peddles correctly and putting so much focus on that may distract me from some of the other things.

Thanks again.
