Both my husband and I wear heart rate monitors when we're riding. It really helps to make sure that you're working at your peak performance. We often compare after a hill and he's usually at a...

I hope you don't mind this late posting. I'm 5'5" and 187 (I've lost 30 lbs in the last 6 months that I've been riding) so I'm right in there too. I too have joined a club with many seniors and all...

I checked and all of the loose fitting shorts on the page above have a chamois buit in.
Thanks for the info. I look forward to hearing how you made out. I hope you keep us updated.
Personally, I'm just starting back up for the season and my husband and I joined a local club. We...
So it's running and cycling only then, right?
Trixie,
I went to a local bike shop and went window shopping after I did some on line research. I wanted a red bike that was comfortable, at the time. Now I ride a road bike, not quite as comfy,...
The cold weather is almost over, but I've been wearing my knickers (go below the knee) with a pair of regular exercise tights over the top. I wear a winter or long sleeved jersey and a light-weight...
If you haven't found it yet, I make a lot of purchases at www.performancebike.com and www.nashbar.com. Both are suppliers of bicycle supplies and assesories. They have gear for men and women.
I've seen the padded spandex shorts with attached baggies over the top. That may be your best option. You get the comfort of the the spandex and pad, with the cover of the baggier short over the...
I wouldn't ride ten miles with out my padded shorts and cycling jerseys. They make all the difference with comfort and staying as dry as possible. The pros don't wear them for nothing, that's for...
I have knickers and shorts and I love them. My thighs are a little chubby (not for long warm weather is coming!!) so I love the knickers. I've bought all of them here at teamestrogen.com the price...
Congratulations on your new bike. My husband got me a Trek 2000 last year and I love it. I also had to go through about 6 or 7 seats before I was comfortable. The bike shop did this at now...
I finally got my saddle replaced with a more cushy sefras modle. This one doesn't have a split front and has lots more cush at the back. The only thing is that is almost feels like there's too much...
I'm not very used to ergonomic saddles, but my serfas hurts more in my private places. It's greak on my sitting bones and rear end, but it feels like it's pinching me up front some how. :eek: I...
:eek: I have the same problem, especially since I have chubby thighs (for the moment), I bought some longer shorts called knickers. They are much more comfortable than the shorter shorts. :p
I live in Connecticut and my first tour off the safe trails of the Farmington Canal Bicycle Trail, was a 20 mile ride through Guilford and Madison, which went through Hammonaset park. The part I...
I'm pretty new to cycling as well. I bought a Gary Fisher cross style bike and had the same problem with the peddles. I went to the local bike shop and bought some peddle cages that screwed right...
I live in Hamden (near Bridgeport) Connecticut and just started riding in the begining of August. We have a wonderful trail that used to be a railroad, it's called the Farmington Canal Trail. It's...
