Bike Set Up
Any advice much appreciated:
Did the Cotswold Spring Classic yesterday (short 60 mile route) and my hamstrings are a bit sore today (both proximal fibula heads) which i've noticed before on long-ish rides...could this potentially be a set-up issue or an adaptability issue (i.e under-training)?
I know v little about bike set-up but i suspect it is 90% science and 10% 'feel'...
Thank you...

Hard to say without knowing your level of training going into the event or your level of effort in the event or anything about your bike set-up!
Are you getting the same problem in training or only when you ramp up the effort in an event??
Yep. Gradual increase in mileage and/or intensity.
If there's a problem with set-up often high intensity work will highlight it quite quickly.
