Hi everyone,
I did a century today with my local cycling club (actually it was the club preview for our organized century, the Wabash River Ride (July 27th) sponsored by the Wabash River Cycling Club of Lafayette, Indiana). A few weeks ago the great guys at the LBS helped me with some bike adjustments to make my stance more aggressive by tilting my handlebars down. Overall, this causes me to sit less on my seatbones and rest more on my girlie parts. For the last few training rides I've noticed it, but not been terribly bothered by it. Now, my crotch is in agony! Do I need a new seat? Or is it just a matter of 7 hours in the saddle being a few too many? I was a bit undertrained, as my longest ride this season had been 60 mi... I ride a Giant OCR2 (xsmall) and my saddle is a Terry firefly. I've had both for years, but am definitely riding more this summer than before. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
