I'm going for a pro fit. We've moved the seat, forward, back, up, down, tilted.....We've rounded the bars upward, moved the grips inward. I'm sure we've done the right thing in each area - just not the right combo. And as I've said, I did two fits with the LBS that sold it, but he's apparently not knows for doing good fits. Great bike builder though.

I love the wool socks too. They're all I wear, and I have the insoles too. I always wear those too. I think the fact that I had cheap cycling shoes was part of the issue. The hard bottom should help. I'm about to go on a ride and find out. I will keep you guys posted. I can't wait to fit better on the bike. No long rides - 30 minutes is all I'll do. I'm working on hills. So I still get a good cardio workout but not as much wear on my arms and saddle area.

Oh the sit bone issue was more than pressure - it was blisters too. I keep forgetting that I need to clarify that.

As for the heat. It's HOT! Wednesday it's suppose to drop into the low 90's and everyone is excited. The humidity is way too high also! Glad the a/c is fixed!!

Again, thank you for all the advice and support. I'm still getting on the bike regularly. I'm still hopeful that it will work. I need a fit though. That's for sure!
