Hand and neck....
Gang,
I need your input, please.
I started riding seriously in mid-June, have done almost 700 miles since then. I had a professional fit done in mid-July and my fitter tweaked it for me about 10 days ago.
The ONLY issue I had after the initial fit is my right hand will get slight numbness after 10 or so (road) miles and after 15-20, the right side of my neck on the back side will give me some pain. My fitter said they're "definitely connected" and he tweaked the L-R and the up and down of my right brake hood, trying to keep my wrist straight.
It's still there, maybe 50% better, but just enough to nag me and aggravate me. My fitter is 75 miles away so I can't drop and run over there without making that fit into my schedule.
Yesterday I took 2 ibuprofen before I started a 40 mile ride, then took 2 more about 75 minutes into the ride. That was an experiment - and it helped - but my bike should keep me away from drugs, not add them to my regimen, so I won't be doing that again.
What tips or tweaks are going through your mind right now that may help?
TIA,
Gary
