My bike is a hybrid/comfort type, with those "mustache" handlebars (is that the right name?) Here's my question --

are they too wide if I find that my elbows and shoulders bother me when I'm holding the handgrips, but that I'm more comfy if I hold them in farther (have twist shifters) like, by their shifters?

DH grumbled when I said, I think my handlebars might be too wide, today. He says, next thing he knows, I'll want one of those goofy bikes (he saw a few minutes of the time trial today) like Floyd Landis has.

No, I don't think I'm ready for aero bars yet!

But I DID go real fast today and it was fun! (to which DH says I go either wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy to slow or wayyyyyyyyyy too fast -- I gotta speed up and slow down!)
