Saddle sores

[rebeccaC]

I've never had a saddle sore of any consequence even on a 300/400k brevet, overall sore yes! Clean shorts each ride, seamless chamois, Terry Butterfly, chamois cream and a well fitted bike has worked well for me.....and my being shaved is a personal preference and wasn't influenced by pornographers or anyone else.

The issue for me is not so much that some one had a POV that is different from mine, but that a personal opinion was not expressed in a manner that was respectful of differing points of view.

We disagree a lot of this board, but it's always been of a polite and respecful nature.

Well said and one of the reasons I like this forum!!!!

I use Vaseline Petroleum Jelly to prevent saddle sores and it really works! Apply liberal amounts - the more the better it works.

Using Vaseline can increased the risk of yeast and bacterial infections.
