Default Quad pain

After cycling for approximately two hours I get pain in both quads. I have been a avid cyclist for the past 13 years and this just began to happen about a year ago. The pain remains for about 20 to 30 min after I get off of the bike. There is no residual soreness after that. Anyone ever experienced this or have any ideas? My bike fits and I have tried numerous things including high cadence, standing and sitting etc.

Are you hitting more hills these days, or doing increased tempo work? These things seem to increase quad soreness for me....
