How did you cut down in caffeine? Tried before but kept getting headaches.
I just did cold turkey and put up with the headaches (and night sweats, crap sleep, etc) for a week. All done after that. Now just drink decaf coffee although it's not a problem to have one real coffee if I go somewhere that doesn't have decaf. Any more than one and I can feel the buzz and sometimes have trouble sleeping that night.
If you take painkillers to make the headaches less bad then make sure the pills aren't the "faster" or "express" versions as they often contain caffeine to boost the metabolism to get the analgesic into the blood and working faster.
Thanks. Am going to see how it goes/ head home at st albans. Am planning to do just a couple if rides in per week and see how it goes. How did you cut down in caffeine? Tried before but kept getting headaches.
