give your knees a break and switch positions.
missionary or reverse cowboy can also be exciting.
oh yeah, and borfo's link is good too.

Hey KIMS my Girlfriend is a Dr. and I asked her what you should do heres what she said.
Ice it down after you ride and make sure you properly stretch out your quads and your hamstrings. Also she says to lay on your back and put a pillow below your knee extend the knee and hold it for 5 seconds the relax it for 5 seconds (repeat 30 times) 3 times a week.

it could be this. I have problems with this after long rides. Stretching and a lower gear ratio usually do the trick though
