Unless you have a prior history or trauma to the joint, it's most likely down to poor circulation, caused by the cold, static position and to some extent, vibrations.
Putting something like a sock round your knee will help to keep it warmer, but will cause uneven pressure - not helpful if your circulation's poor to start with. Confused
Try with a piece of tubigrip - or alternatively use some ibuprofin gel on your knees prior to a long ride. When I did horseriding & eventing we used to nickname the stuff 12 year old's knees! Wink
Maybe even a bit of Deep Heat may do the trick.

Must be it ... i got off the bike 5 hours ago and my knees still hurt and fell cold , guess its a circulation problem
Going to buy a pair of tubigrip , the knees dont hurt to much , and tomorrow they are better , so im gonna skip the drugs
You do sound like a expert , thanks for the advice
