Post-Cycling Muscle Soreness

After a particularly good ride, or, perhaps a prolonged effort into the wind (like my ride home yesterday) you might experience some soreness in your leg muscles.  According to Dr. Gabe Merkin, an avid cyclist, some muscle pain is a good thing indicating you just had a decent workout.  Dr. Merkin recommends going easy the day after a hard ride until the muscle soreness dissipates before resuming a vigorous workout regime.
