    at 59, have started cycling again after a few years away. mostly rec (5-10 miles every few days) and the "numbness" is making me crazy. sometimes can barely dismount and standing up straight at times is actually shooting pains. have to stand away from passerbys to massage the pain down before restarting.

    New PI Short Attacks and better posture helping a little. want to try angling seat front down at bit, before looking for new seat, but how much and how to judge/eyeball/measure? If new seat needed anyone know "estrogen friendly" stores in DC area.

    All counsel appreciated. Thx in advance
