Default Stitch..!! Help!!

Recently when I've been out on a hard ride ive been getting a slight stitch in my left calf. When this happens I have to ease a little, and stretch it out on the bike on the bike or I feel that im going to pull the muscle. Anything maybe that i might be missing in my diet?? or should I spend more time on stretching the muscles pre-workout??

Cheers

Maybe try some additional magnesium before bed. 400-600mg works very well at prventing slight or extreme cramping & twitching and will enhance you sleep as well.
