I hated tampons when I was younger. They were extremely painful. I avoided using them at all costs. Now that I'm older, and much more active, I've found ways to deal with them, but I still detest them, but I have ridden in pads before - um.. no thanks!!! owwie owwie...

Though, the shorts camois is a better emergency sopper than I was expecting. Even when it is full , the lycra seems to hold it in, and not leave trails behind you when you sit down


You know.. I'm glad to have a ladies only site! I've embarrassed a couple guy friends with some things I bring up. Sheesh, a gal's gotta talk about stuff.

yesterday after the ride we stopped at another rider's house. A nice lady who is past all this nonsense. She and her - well, I'm not decided, either a roommate, or S.O., drove me and my friend to lunch after an afternoon of fiddling on her computer. However, I was out longer than I was preparred for. We were in 2 cars, and Ann and I stopped at walgreens for an emergency run. apparently they contacted each other by cell phone. Sandy wanted to know what Ann was doing. Mike, my friend, told her it was a feminine products thing. Sandy's reaction was "She's too old for that!!!"
