I'm fairly new to this site my husband usually posts here. My problem is this: he bought a bike for me which I LOVE- BUT my saddle is a nightmare. It came with a Selle Italia and then he gave me his old Selle Concor which looks like he stole it off Fred Flintstones bike! It is sooo uncomfortable for me to ride. I try and I've been successful agreeing to go on a few rides with him and I had a great time BUT it really hurt my sensitive areas. He thinks I'm just being a picky B**** and basically I just don't want to ride with him. We are at it again today. It's a beautiful day and I would love to go riding with him but I refuse to keep hurting myself. He keeps saying I ride with the same kind of saddle I gave you...YEA well it hurts me. I absolutely love my bike and really enjoy riding with him so how can I express this to him and make him believe it? He is a true cyclist right down to the bone..records all races, buys all the mags and rides whenever he can. If I'd let him he'd have our room plastered in bicycle stuff including the bikes...

I really want to enjoy the sport and get into but he's not helping at all!

ANY advice would be greatly appreciated as I'm sure he'll be reading them..
