All interesting responses, thanks guys. Not read them properly yet but will do tonight.
I think it's mostly the fluid replacement issue. I just really really crave a couple of beers a few hours after a big ride. I guess I need to either stop doing that or drink wayyy more water etc when I get back.
I've increased the miles recently, but only by say 10% at the very most per ride in the last month or so, up to the point where i've done about 110 the last couple of weekends.
.i.e., I'm used to pretty big (c.80mile) rides, and have always had this issue, but the increase over the last month or so inevitably won't help.
