Larry replied to Dana's discussion 'Foot pain? Arch pain?'"Also.... Are the wool socks thicker than what you rode in all summer???? A thicker sock might be adding more pressure.... We see that a lot in the ski shop.... When a boot is fit properly in a light or medium weight ski sock…"
Larry replied to Dana's discussion 'Foot pain? Arch pain?'"Actually, I just looked back up.... You said SPD yellow.... I'm guessing that is the triangle SPD-SL road cleat with 6 degrees of float.... And a spin bike would use a traditional SPD (mountain bike) cleat which would not fit…"
Larry replied to Dana's discussion 'Foot pain? Arch pain?'"If you are stuck with the shoes (or really want to keep them and make them work) you could try putting some moleskin in the area where you folded the socks over.... Or possibly stretching the shoe in that area to relieve some of the…"

Dana replied to Dana's discussion 'Foot pain? Arch pain?'"Thanks to everyone for their input. I really appreciate everyone's thoughts. After meeting with the chiropractor, it was determined that it was a strain. There was some minor swelling at the top of the foot, near the ankle…"
James BlackHeron replied to Dana's discussion 'Foot pain? Arch pain?'"I still think that a professional podiatrist would be the cheaper alternative to a bike fitter in the end -those guys are more expensive than specialist foot doctors. "
Larry replied to Dana's discussion 'Foot pain? Arch pain?'"As someone who does bike fitting in the summer and ski boot fitting in the winter, I could probably write a book full of POSSIBLE answers to this one....

Take a look at my website staceyearley.com--there are a bunch of illustrations there. If you like them...boy, I sure don't have much time for art work these days but I don't mind having my brain picked! Anytime!

- I also prefer the lakefront trail as I live right by Belmont and Sheridan. Where are you coming from? I will be volunteering for Chainlink this Saturday at IIT. Do you maybe want to try and get together Sunday morning for a ride?

- I am rather new to biking, but I've been riding to and from work and some longer weekend rides. I'm definitely a newbie, but I surprised myself this weekend by actually doing the longer Boulevard Ride this weekend. I live near Belmont and Broadway and yes, it would be good to get riding earlier in the morning and weekends anytime is good for me.

Tommie said… - check the distance between the magnet on the wheel and the sensor. should be under 3mm. sometimes the magnet gets turned around or bumped. then check the wiring (if its wired) from the sensor up to the mounting bracket--if it's frayed time to buy a new one. if that's ok, theck the mounting bracket. steel wool the contact pads, make sure the 'puter is in the bracket correctly and has a good battery. if that doesn't work reset the computer and re-program the wheel data and stuff in it.
all that fails go buy a wireless puter.
