So did 700 km of twisties today. Three issues:

1) My butt gets sore.
2) Sharp pains in my trapezoid muscles behind my shoulders.

These are relieved with breaks, but eventually, they get to be too much.

3) I still have knee pains.

I've figured out that not only are my knees hurting from me hanging off the bike, it's actually the fact they're sitting on the pegs. Even straight-road riding, I was suffering from knee pains. I periodically stretched them as I rode, but it was still there. I'm thinking it's a combination of the peg height and the vibrations of the bike going into my legs.

I'm 5'10", I don't see how the pegs wouldn't be a good position for me...

Oh, and I'm hanging off correctly. Definitely not crossed up.
