Ugh, I hear you. I went through a lot to find a good combo for me. While you are trying out your husband's shorts, don't rule out men's saddles too. I wound up with the Men's Liberator by Terry. ...

So . . . now I'm confused. LOL. I bet I'm using the term, "long waisted" wrong. Proportionally, the chamois needs to be longer than for an average build. In other words, if you took a measuring...
This just should not be so hard, but it was.
I leave tomorrow morning for South Dakota and my trek on the Mickelson Bike trail. Finding the right combination of saddle and shorts has been...
Great photos. Thanks for posting them. I live right here in Utah and haven't seen much coverage.
Dr. Liz, that is scary. :eek: Hope hope hope that never happens to me. I have given up starting the greenie TB's though.
Interesting question for the horsie types. I'm still in my ancient...
That's great!!!! I love the way you put that. Now that I'm getting back into biking, I have such a hard time seeing myself in my bike shorts:( . I was in such good shape a few years ago before I...
:eek: Oh too funny . . . I mean it's not funny . . . I mean I'm laughing with you . . .
Seriously. How embarassing!
I've snagged too, but it's only been monentary and my shorts are all thinner...
I'm just getting back into mountain biking after a year of not riding at all and several years of not doing much of it. Last night on my ride I had a chance to be reminded about just how much I love...
Good to hear about the PI 3d's. I am still going to tailor the pair I bought, but that makes sense considering how little time you spend in the saddle on a tough MTB ride.
You all are just...
100 degrees at 7:00 p.m. for my ride. DH decided it was too hot so I went by myself. I'm still in a panic about being able to do 50 miles in three weeks. I just could NOT do my hill circuit today...
Hmmm . . . don't seem to find the edit button or delete on this thread.
I guess this seemed like a dumb question. I've answered most of it by more research and will just visit a shop on my bike...
Brandi, when I lived in Newport I rode the boardwalk and HB pike path on a cruiser with the loudest breaks. That loud screech was the BEST! I never wanted to get rid of the screech because it was...
Hehe, run it ride it I have a good job and still can't afford my horse addiction. I'm now headed to law school in a year.
One of these days I'm going to run into someone with a Brooks on their...
Who would have guessed? I sure didn't expect to see other dressagites on this forum. It's so hard to have time for both! Riding to the stable? Please tell me you are 25? I'm going to feel soooo...
Hi all. I'm still trying different saddles; Terry Butterfly, Liberator, Serfas Yuckas, Vitesse,
I'm soooo picky about my horse saddles because a good one will put you in the sweet spot...
That's good to hear. My husband quit smoking and then began exercising when he met me. Poor guy. I took him to Moab and took him on the beginner loop on Slickrock when we were dating. I think the...
I'm right there with you and posted my cry for help on another thread:D . This is such a great forum! I have a vacation in Aug where I'll be on my bike for about 40 miles every day and am trying to...

Explanation of your handle: Just went with my name.
Explanation of your avatar: That is my off the track Thoroughbred (OTTB) I...
Thanks! I'll see if I can find her thread. I think I'm customizing the pair of PI's I bought.
In English horse riding saddles, they come in medium and narrow twists that correspond to pelivs...
After trying on a couple of shorts at the shop and then my old ones that worked pretty well but are falling apart, I think I just need a longer portion of the padding to stay narrow. After trying on...
Thanks FBG for the reply. I'll take a look at those shorts.
I'm headed out in 30 min to REI because there's a woman there who does lots of miles. Most shops around here are run by 19 year old...
Bumping this back up.
Do you all feel that the cutouts and or channels are essential?
I am saddle and short combination shopping. I'm having to sit out riding today after getting badly chaffed...
Hi all from Utah :)
Another horsewoman here and horseless right now. Much less expensive riding my trainer's haha! I'm also an equine photographer. So . . do I want a new dressage saddle, new...
Hi all!
I'm getting back into biking (doing a rail trail trip in a month) after being out of it for about 8 years while I was so busy training my horse. I have an ancient and heavy GT -that still...
