Until now, my regular post ride recovery regime has consisted of any combination of Guiness, bacon sarnie, Mum's fruit cake. It's time to concede, at a ripe 39, that maybe there is something a little more effective to avoid the all night leg twitching that develops.
So far, I've had recommendations of more Guiness, protein shakes, dessicated liver (now that sounds fun) and a shrug at a local health food store when I said I wasn't interested in muscle building, just recovery.
Any other suggestions?
